Course Objective and Content

Course Objectives:

Disaster and emergency management is a kind of multi-disciplinary subject which includes engineering, social and health sciences and has great importance in Turkey where natural disasters, earthquakes in particular, are the major threats.
That’s why, it is aimed to teach the phases of disaster managements, concepts of emergency and risk managements, the responsibility and jurisdictions of the stakeholders, legislations for the disaster managements, implications of risk, hazard and SWOT analysis to the students of all disciplines.

Course Content:

What are the Disasters? How can they classified? What are their properties? Vision, Mission and Principles of Integrated Disaster Management. Phases of Disaster Management – Introduction to Preparedness, Response, Recovery and Mitigation Phases, Risk and Emergency Management Concepts, their advantages and disadvantages. Preparedness Phase – Rapid Response ans Early Warning Systems, Disaster Scenarios, Emergency Action Plans. Response Phase – Search and Rescue, First Aid, Sire Safety, Security Systems. Incident Command System. Recovery Phase – Temporary Residences, Housing, Repairment or replacement of roads,public buildings and bridges, Implementation of Mitigation Measures. Mitigation Phase – Economical Aspets of Disasters, Risk Transfer Systems: Disaster Funds and Insurance, DASK as an example. SWOT /Risk Analysis – Information, Methods and Examples.
Stakeholders in Disaster Management Systems (Central and Local Governments, Private Sector, NGOs and Citizens) – Their responsibilities and duties. Legisletion of Disaster Management System in Turkey, evaluation of the situation after 1999 and 2023 Earthquakes. Evaluation, Comparison and Examples of Disaster Management Systems from different Countries over the World and Turkey.
