The Earthquake Engineering with Disaster Management MSc combines specialist structural and earthquake engineering knowledge with an advanced understanding of resilience and risk modelling for natural hazards. The programme is designed to produce engineers who are able to work in the civil and structural engineering sector, as well as taking roles in risk and catastrophe modelling or disaster management.

Graduates of Earthquake Engineering with Disaster Management MSc will be able to:

Analyse, Design and Assess structures to current seismic codes, as well as modern unconventional methods.

Evaluate Vulnerability and Resilience of ordinary and special structures against earthquake and extreme loading conditions.

Determine the efficiency and economic viability of pre-disaster risk mitigation and post-disaster risk management solutions.

MSc students undertake modules to the value of 180 credits.

The MSc programme consists of SIX Core Modules (90 credits), TWO Optional Modules (30 credits) and a Research Project (60 credits).

The Postgraduate Diploma (120 credits) consisting of SEVEN Core Modules (105 credits) and ONE Optional Module (15 credits).

Upon successful completion of 180 credits, you will be awarded a MSc in Earthquake Engineering with Disaster Management. Upon successful completion of 120 credits, you will be awarded a PG Dip in Earthquake Engineering with Disaster Management.
