Students will investigate background factors that provide context for specific disaster-prone regions and viable design solutions. Students will quantify expected engineering reliability to potential solutions. Students will work with local communities, aid organizations, and peer institutions when identifying resilient designs, eventually seeking pathways to implement solutions with partner communities. During class meetings, independently, and in virtual environments, students will work in teams to resolve design related challenges. Class topics and both recorded and live guest lectures will focus on the design approaches and assessment of resilience for potential technological and social solutions responding to current and anticipated challenges for disaster prone regions. Term projects will document, organize, and store assessments, analyses, and designs, providing prioritized design, testing, education, management, and business plans for collaborating communities and future students enrolled in this class. Participation in the course also offers an optional study tour, although given the current pandemic this may be limited to virtual interaction with stakeholders, and an opportunity to repeat the course for deeper training in Disaster Resilience (contact instructor for more information). Grades for all students are calculated after post semester study tours as data collection will occur during travel and will be incorporated into final term projects after students return, pending the submission and grading of assignments upon return. PLEASE CONTACT INSTRUCTOR AT LFR@ILLINOIS.EDU FOR ANY QUESTIONS.
