The Division of Fire Safety Engineering at Lund University is launching a new online course entitled “Fire Evacuation Design”. The course content covers different behavioural theories and concepts concerning fire evacuation. The course also includes an overview of the evacuation models available on the market (from an impartial point of view) and it focuses on understanding their main modelling assumptions, strengths and limitations.

The course consists of weekly interactive lessons (i.e. one lecture every week) and two assignments. The course will start in November 2016 and it ends in March 2017.

More information about the course can be found at here and the course application can be done online.
