8 Educational cursus during the second year Students have to choose between Majors : –‘’City and buildings’’, –‘’Environment and risks’’, –‘’transportation and infrastructure’’. Going thoroughly into subjects. Two important aspects of the course session : training periods and a project. 1

9 Educational cursus for the third year Students have to choose one speciality. For the Major ‘’Environment, risks and territory’’ three possibilities : –Damage and Pollution –Management of rivers and costal waters –Prevention and management of risks First beginning at the start of the new school year (September 2006). 1

10 Educational cursus during the third year The third year training course is the combination of : ‘’Major’’ courses for all students Specialities courses Common courses : Field training week Workshop Europe and Environment Land use planning Conservation and management of natural ecosystems Environment evaluation Geographical Information Systems (GIS) 1

11 The project about ‘’prevention and management of risks’’ The basis of the project The pedagogical project The learning 2 2b 2c 2a

12 The basis of the project The origin of the project MEng in 2002 : ‘’mastering natural, industrial and urban risks’’ Partnership with the French Institute of Petrol (IFP). Certu was a technical partner in charge of urban risks. 2a

13 The basis of the project A few months ago, the ENTPE asked to create a new project : The 3 rd year of a Risk Diploma. 2a

14 Risk management can be : a special mission within an organisation (dealing with dangerous phenomena such as industrial hazards or natural risks) For Engineers in charge of territory, what dealing with risks means ? 1/2 2a

15 Risk management can also be : a professional philosophy, a know-how Daily risks/ Uncertain context Vulnerability/ Management For Engineers in charge of territory, what does it mean to deal with risks ? 2/2 2a

16 Mastering fundamental technical / transversal aspects Dealing with systemic views / Combine global approaches (technical data, sociologial and economic points of view, scientific research). Risk approach as a school of excellence 2a

17 ’Cindynique’’ as an example, for a scientific approach to risk management. Possibility to work on technical aspects but also organisational problems. Risk concepts : major risks / health / dangerous behaviours…The ‘’Cindynique’’ Risk approach as a school of excellence 2a

18 The pedagogical project the challenge : to offer a global approach, which gives fundamentals, to give practical adaptations in various fields. 2b But also, To allow students having groundings developing risk approaches in many professional situations and consequently to be able in the future to reinforce their expertise by themselves

19 The pedagogical project The idea in this training course is : to give general concepts, to develop risk policies, to deal with methods and tools to work on territorial approaches including the crisis management and finally to join the various strands together. 2b

20 Sustainable development of territory Processes, techniques and tools Taking into account risk in urban development European and French policies of prevention / management of major risks Processes, techniques and tools Taking into account the reality of the territory Local strategies taking into account the risk component including RM General concept of risk situations General concept of major risks Fundamental concepts of risk AXIS 2 AXIS 1 © Bernard Guézo, Certu (Fr) The pedagogical project 2b

23 The learning Process, techniques and tools : Risk prevention land use planning (PPR) Insurance aspects Public Information and discussion between the States and the local authorities Axis ‘’Prevention and management of risks’’ 2c

24 The learning Industrial risks, Flooding, Earthquakes, Landslides 2c For each theme, the learning will look at : hazards, values, risk assessment, methods and tools, taking into account local contexts. Axis ‘’Prevention and management of risks’’

25 Land use planning Water cycles in the city Taking into account risk in an operational project Risk and surface transport Hazardous goods transport Insecurity on roads Tunnel security Axis Intégration in territorial and sustainable action The learning 2c

26 Mastering quality and security / buildings and infrastructures. It means looking at risk management in the following : The design The management. Hygiene and security Fire risks Risk and territory : sociological and economic approaches / to identify what it is possible to do. Axis Intégration in territorial and sustainable action The learning 2c

27 Crisis management course: Preparation and planning Crisis management Recovery Feedback Local strategies’ taking into account the risk component The learning 2c

28 Worshop with practical exercice on a real territory Local strategies’ taking into account the risk component The learning 2c

29 The learning At the end of the learning, students will have to do a project for 3 months (dissertation) : they will have to study in a professional organisation a particular problem in detail and to create innovative solutions. 2c

30 To end, the identity card of this training course : Common training sessions (Major) 135 hours Special training sessions on risks (specialities) : 250 hours with projects Dissertation on risk : 3 months Speakers or teachers : 50
