UBC courses related to disasters

June 5, 2024

Members of the UBC Disaster Resilience Research Network have put together a list of courses at UBC with topics related to disasters and disaster resilience that are being offered during the 2024-25 academic year (Winter Terms 1 & 2). These courses span many departments and degree programs at both UBC-Vancouver and UBC-Okanagan. This list is a work in progress. Be sure to check the relevant course listing on WorkDay Student, as course offerings, eligibility, and required prerequisites may change.

Please share this page widely with any graduate or undergraduate students interested in studying disasters or disaster resilience at UBC.
