Scholarships for Indian students to study in Australia

Sydney-based University of New South Wales (UNSW) has instituted 61 scholarships to attract "bright" Indian minds and provide them financial assistance for studying in the Australian varsity.
The scholarships for the forthcoming July 2018 admissions exclusively for Indians are open to under graduate and post graduate students wishing to study at UNSW -- ranked 26th in the world in employer reputation as per the QS university rankings 2017-18.


These include one full tuition fee scholarship and 10 scholarships each worth (Australian) $10,000 per annum for tuition fees.
Also up for the grabs are 50 awards each worth $5,000 to cover tuition fee for one year that is open to post graduate students only.
A statement from the university said as part of its India strategy, the UNSW, one of the best ranked universities in the world, has been focusing on its twin pillars - strong teaching and robust research - "to dramatically disrupt the manner in which higher education is delivered".
Australia is fast emerging as the preferred higher education destination with the job market in the country set to grow at 7.8 per cent for the next five years.
"We need to anticipate the future, especially when it is evolving at such a rapid pace. What you need is not an evolution of thinking but the revolution of thought, if we are to stay relevant. That is the biggest challenge that higher education needs to accommodate and adjust to," said Amit Dasgupta, the India country director of UNSW.
The statement said that UNSW has been continuously looking for bright minds to deliver on the demands the future would place before the global community.
And as such it has instituted the 'Future of Change' awards for students from India.
"The awards are aimed at attracting and supporting high-achieving Indian students to undertake under graduate or post graduate study at UNSW."
To win awards, candidates need to secure admission to the Semester-2 2018 and submit a two-minute digital video testimonial of how a scholarship at UNSW will help them achieve their aspirations.
The last date for applications is May 30, 2018.

Role of Geography in Disaster Management

Geography plays a pivotal role in disaster management by facilitating an understanding of the impact of natural disasters, guiding preparedness efforts, and supporting effective response and recovery. By analyzing geographical features, environmental conditions, and historical data, geography empowers disaster management professionals to identify risks, plan for hazards, respond to emergencies, assess damage, and monitor recovery. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) serve as crucial tools, providing critical spatial data for informed decision-making throughout the disaster management cycle. Key Concepts, Terminologies, and Examples 1. Identifying Risk: Concept: Risk identification involves analyzing geographical areas to understand their susceptibility to specific natural disasters. By studying historical events, topography, climate patterns, and environmental factors, disaster management experts can predict which regions are most vulnerable. Terminologies: Hazard Risk: The pr...

Disaster Management

1. Disaster Risk Analysis → Disaster Risk Reduction → Disaster Management Cycle Disaster Risk Analysis is the first step in managing disasters. It involves assessing potential hazards, identifying vulnerable populations, and estimating possible impacts. Once risks are identified, Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) strategies come into play. DRR aims to reduce risk and enhance resilience through planning, infrastructure development, and policy enforcement. The Disaster Management Cycle then ensures a structured approach by dividing actions into pre-disaster, during-disaster, and post-disaster phases . Example Connection: Imagine a coastal city prone to cyclones: Risk Analysis identifies low-lying areas and weak infrastructure. Risk Reduction includes building seawalls, enforcing strict building codes, and training residents for emergency situations. The Disaster Management Cycle ensures ongoing preparedness, immediate response during a cyclone, and long-term recovery afterw...

Recovery and Rehabilitation

Disaster management involves several phases, including mitigation, preparedness, response, recovery, and rehabilitation . Recovery and rehabilitation are post-disaster activities that aim to restore normalcy and improve resilience in affected areas. 1. Recovery Recovery is the long-term process of rebuilding communities, infrastructure, economy, and social systems after a disaster. It focuses on restoring normalcy while incorporating resilience measures to withstand future disasters. Short-term Recovery – Immediate efforts within weeks or months to restore essential services (e.g., water, electricity, healthcare, shelter). Long-term Recovery – Efforts that take months to years, including rebuilding infrastructure, economic revitalization, and mental health support. Resilience – The ability of a community to recover quickly and adapt to future disasters. Livelihood Restoration – Providing economic support to affected populations through job creation, skill training, a...

Pre During and Post Disaster

Disaster management is a structured approach aimed at reducing risks, responding effectively, and ensuring a swift recovery from disasters. It consists of three main phases: Pre-Disaster (Mitigation & Preparedness), During Disaster (Response), and Post-Disaster (Recovery). These phases involve various strategies, policies, and actions to protect lives, property, and the environment. Below is a breakdown of each phase with key concepts, terminologies, and examples. 1. Pre-Disaster Phase (Mitigation and Preparedness) Mitigation: This phase focuses on reducing the severity of a disaster by minimizing risks and vulnerabilities. It involves structural and non-structural measures. Hazard Identification: Recognizing potential natural and human-made hazards (e.g., earthquakes, floods, industrial accidents). Risk Assessment: Evaluating the probability and consequences of disasters using GIS, remote sensing, and historical data. Vulnerability Analysis: Identifying areas and p...
