03Pathway

The pathway through the stream

Courses by study level, each with the course it builds on, the labs it uses and the faculty stage where its subject is practised.

04What it teaches

Scope, audience and next steps

The analytical methods behind risk evidence, each taught with its assumptions and limits: geospatial analysis, exposure and vulnerability data, probabilistic and catastrophe modelling, forecast triggers and the legal side of using data.

Who it is for. Analysts, data specialists and engineers who produce or check risk evidence.

What comes next. Technical courses are prerequisites for many Nexus and Systems courses; the role pathways name which.
