Earth-centred, from physical processes to impact, advancing geosciences to support sustainability and resilience.
The Department of Geosciences coordinates the Disaster Resilience theme at the ITC faculty.

We use a range of techniques and tools to study natural hazards, such as floods, landslides and volcanic eruptions. We study how dynamic risk of interacting natural hazards can be quantified for improved decision making in disaster risk reduction and support post-disaster recovery.

We use remote sensing, geographic information systems (GIS) and computational modelling to map and assist exploration of critical raw materials and geothermal resources.
