The Disaster Studies minor introduces students to both practice and research in disaster studies with a focus on the emerging field of disaster mental health. Our students study the impact of disaster on individuals and communities and are trained to respond to local and global disasters. The interdisciplinary minor in Disaster Studies is housed within the Psychology Department and overseen by IDMH faculty.
