Regular Course Curriculum

Outline

Participants for the regular course will choose one of two sub-courses, S or E. In the term of the Group Training 1, sub-course S attends classes on Seismology. The sub-course E attends lectures on Earthquake Engineering. In the term of the Group Training 2, all the participants should attend lectures on Seismic Disaster Mitigation.
