EGC 305 - Control of Nature
Natural processes such as floods and landslides become disasters when they affect humans. Modern engineering techniques designed to manage natural disasters change the environment and human attitudes, and can cause more problems than they solve. This course will use case studies to discuss whether natural hazards can or should be controlled.
