Additionally, it introduces a range of online games that enhance the integration and practical application of the developing conceptual [...]

In this course, we explore the components of landscapes and natural disasters. We emphasize human actions that impact the environment, both in terms of modification and preservation. Additionally, we explore concepts related to cities, megacities, and sustainable environments. The course also delves into the connection between the environment, health, [...]

This course explores key concepts of climate change, such as climate, terrestrial systems, and energy. Their relationships are analyzed, and a diagnosis is proposed to promote school awareness of the short-term and long-term causes and effects of climate change. Additionally, the identification of local and global actions to mitigate [...]

In this course, you will learn about the challenges that countries in Latin America and the Caribbean face in the context of natural disasters and climate change, and their consequent impacts on infrastructure projects and socio-economic development.

This course will teach you how to identify and analyze the risks of natural disasters in infrastructure projects. You will learn about different types of qualitative and quantitative analysis, as well as the methodologies and tools used to conduct these analyses in order to apply the knowledge. You will [...]

Climate change and health is the third and final instalment of the wider Global Health Challenges and Governance specialisation from Imperial College London's Global Master of Public Health (GMPH).
