Risk management of natural and civilization hazards on buildings and infrastructure is an extremely important task for the future. Natural disasters like earthquakes, storms or floods are increasing and eternal risks which have already cost the lives of many people. On the other hand, civilization hazards due to accidents in chemical plants, nuclear power plants, landfill sites, contamination of ground water, big blazes, etc. are increasing in number.
The goal of the international research training group on risk management of natural and civilization hazards on the built environment is the investigation of relevant subjects, including the analysis, monitoring, control and reduction of the above risks.
The College is organized by the Technical University of Braunschweig and the University of Florence, Italy. The students work in Braunschweig as well as in Florence. A carefully structured teaching program supports the introduction into the actual problems.
The international research training group is funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft and partly by the federal state of Lower Saxony and, on the Italian side, by the Ministry of Universities and Research.
