| Learning outcomes: | After completing the course student in terms of knowledge: 1. Knows systems of warnings against different natural threats; Student has a knowledge about way of collecting, identifying and selection of information about threats; Student knows bases of the safety management, structure of systems of the rescue in the Republic of Poland and the understands of the principle of managing a rescue operation (IB1A_W10). 2. Knows modern methods of solving engineering problems in the engineering of the safety; Student understands engineering character studies; Student knows meaning of notions concerning solving engineering problems from the scope of the safety, the principle of the preparation and describing the presentation; Student has a basic knowledge concerning new techniques and the technology (IB1A_W19). 3. Knows principles of the description of complex technical systems with trees of the unfitness and the matrix of the risk. Student has a detailed knowledge from the scope of the safe design; Student knows an influence on the body of harmful factors appearing in the process of the work. Student knows sense of the notion: “crisis" and "crisis situation"; Student has a general knowledge about critical threats (natural and technical disasters) and safeties (IB1A_W11). in terms of skills: 1. Is able correctly to analyse causes and the course of processes and social phenomena’s, to perform basic economic analyses for the typical business activity; Student is able to take predicted with right to act in crisis situations, threatening the life or the human health (IB1A_U04). 2. Is able to apply the right system of warnings and the way of internal and outside announcing in the situation of the appearance of the natural threat, to cooperate with media and to identify reasons for coming into existence of extraordinary phenomena (IB1A_U10). 3. Is able to assess the degree of threatening on the rung of the local self-government, to draw up chosen elements of the rescue plan, to suggest the way of keeping the rescue share in chosen extraordinary events (IB1A_U16). in terms of social competences: 1. Is aware that his activity is affecting the safety and the quality of the life of the society; Student understands that results of engineering activity will depend on applying the newest methods and appropriate interpretation of achieved results (IB1A_K01). 2. Is aware of a social role of the graduate of a university; Student understands the need of informing the society of different aspects of activity of the engineer dealing with assuring safety and eliminate effects of disasters (IB1A_K06). 3. Understands meaning speeds of making a decision in the process of the crisis management; Student is able to work individually and in the team (IB1A_K06). |
