Course detail
Advanced Methods of Risk Management
FSI-XAMAcad. year: 2019/2020
The main kontent of the course is a review of the procedures and methods for hazard identification (sources of risk) and determination of the level of risk (estimation of the frequency of occurrence of an event). The course focuses at industrial safety (with regard to the relevant EU legislation), social risk of industrial activities, deductive and inductive methods of risk sources detection and risk estimation.

Learning outcomes of the course unit
The course allows the students to také up on the knowledge from previous studies, to deepen it and to broaden it with the specified field. The students learn to use the basic methods and procedures of safety engineering, which require considering of a broad spektrum of technical, economic and ecological aspects.
Prerequisites
Knowledge of mathematics and physics in the extent of previous studies at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering is expected.
