CLEN 355

This course explains how failures of policy, planning, and preparation have resulted in the worst disasters in modern history – and how societies and governments have learned or failed to learn from these disasters. Using applied research and simulation-based learning, this course will also examine the policies, programs, and tools that can help societies prevent/mitigate, prepare for, respond to, and recover from hazards as they increase in frequency and severity. Cross-listed as PGOV 355,
