Environmental Hazard Management Certificate
Environmental Hazard Management (EHM) is an interdisciplinary program that has
been designed to provide students with an understanding of the interrelationship
between the built environment and extreme events in the natural environment.
The EHM Program consists of a series of courses that are open to students
from any graduate degree program at Texas A&M University. Courses in the EHM Certificate program are taught by faculty fellows
of HRRC in the colleges of Architecture, Engineering, Geosciences, and
Liberal Arts. The core courses provide a basic understanding of the entire
range of issues related to environmental hazards. Specifically, these courses
address basic theory, empirical research, and practical application related
to both natural and technological hazards. The courses also address the
implications of disaster research for policy formulation and implementation
at the household, organizational, community, regional, state, federal,
and international levels.
