GEO2006 Natural Hazards Geography
**GEN ED COURSE: SOCIAL SCIENCE (S) & INTERNATIONAL (N)**
We will use the geographic lens of human-environment interactions to understand how disasters emerge from a complex web of social, cultural, psychological, political, and economic forces in tandem with extreme weather, climate, and geophysical hazard events.
The course discusses international historical, recent, and ongoing hazard events and disasters to connect data analysis and theoretical explanation to students’ individual and shared experiences.
