Hazus Higher Education Resources
Consortium
Similar to the geographically based HUG
groups around the country, the Hazus
Higher Education Resources Consortium
(HERC) provides a networking opportunity
in the academic and educational
community for Hazus users.
The mission of the Hazus HERC is to
classify and distribute information
regarding Hazus use within the higher-
education community for the purpose of
fostering collaboration among institutions
of higher learning and FEMA, as well as
promoting Hazus use and analysis. The
priorities of the Hazus HERC are:
Teaching: incorporating Hazus into a
school curriculum, classroom and/or lab.
Conducting Research: for presentations,
project descriptions and grants awarded,
and by schools experienced in assisting
with Hazus data development.
Working with other FEMA initiatives:
such as Hazus User Groups (HUGs),
RiskMAP and mitigation planning.
Encouraging Service Learning: through
internships, training, working with local
governments and HUGs.
