We are aiming to discuss and advance our understanding on disaster risk reduction towards building a disaster resilient community in Malaysia.

It aims to foster highly skilled human resources who can be leaders in the field of disaster risk management in the public and private sectors in Malaysia and the ASEAN region in general. The MDRM course is offered to full time (1 year) and part-time (3 years) students. Similarly, certified Professional Training Courses are also offered. MDRM is implemented as a joint collaboration between lecturers of MJIIT-UTM and prominent Japanese universities and institutions. Students will have an opportunity to also join a 2-week programme in Japan to obtain hands-on field experience and acquire great knowledge in Disaster Risk Management. MJIIT-UTM Kuala Lumpur has taken a great initiative by leading multi-disciplinary disaster research and providing a better platform to advancing disaster risk toward developing a disaster resilient society in a changing climate.<\/span><\/p>\n
