I think engineers play a very important role in disaster management.
As nowadays technology is increasing very much. So engineers can predict the disaster and they can give some instructions to get rid of them.

Yes, there is the role of Engineers in Disaster Management.
Because nowadays most of the engineers are invented to make our life easy with the computer technology things.
The civil engineers disaster the places and create the new buildings so that distasting has occurred.
Mechanical engineers are making so many vehicles that lead to pollution in the environment. They were invented for our purposes but that only makes the world disaster.
When we wake up at night we all depend on only these engineer things.
Technology is increasing day by day nowadays we are able to look before a disaster happens in a particular area and the measure should be taken before the disaster and natural disaster.
So, I conclude that there is a role for engineers in Disaster management.

Hello everyone,
In my opinion-.
A) Role of the Engineer is a disaster because humans are the ones who play the role of engineer and they have both two types of things in mind -Disaster, Creator. They decide which role they have to play.
B) But there should be some restrictions and rules for playing the role of engineer.
Then only it will become less disastrous.
C) having a great knowledge of hacking then people start misusing it. So, it is safe for normal humans because data is not safe of them.
D) As many people are getting trolled they suicide this is why due to the role of an engineer they take out a number of that person and start trolling so it is bad.
E) On one side the country is becoming advanced and on the other side, disasters are going on.
F) So, I think there should be some restrictions and rules for becoming an engineer.
Thank you.

The software Engineer role is the most important in our life. Because they are inventing new technologies. Like as Applications, Websites, Apps and more etc. Everyone is aware and feels secure, because of artificial intelligence. Nowadays we can learn everything like History, news, tutorial etc.

Role of the engineer in disaster management.
Engineers reflect the intellect of a country, an engineer is exposed to various disciplines of science like electricity, magnetism, mechanics, computing, etc. He is a production unit by himself, when he attempts to create a new product while doing so he must keep in mind various disastrous that can occur in case of any misconception.
Disasters can be human, material, economic or environmental. Once occurred will leave a large impact on the lives of people.
For example;
1. Incident of leakage in LG polymers at Vishakapatnam,
There was a leakage of styrene gas at 3 o clock in the morning, which spread the whole city and has taken many lives. The engineers would have been well informed of the leakage issues and apt troubleshooting processes.
2. Bhopal gas tragedy,
This issue is well known all over the country, leak of iso-cyanate led to a disastrous situation where people have to leave their homes and the area was not fit for living for a prolonged period of time. It has affected soil, air, water in that area.
There are various examples as such, if an engineer is well informed and cautioned about the disasters and educated on disaster management it can help in lessening the impact of the disaster. Few disaster management techniques can be,
1. Regular inspection of the working condition of equipment, proper shutdown.
2. Knowing the climate changes, regularly following the updates of the weather forecast.
3. Performing rigorous tests at lab scale for various combinations possible before implementing at large scale.
4. Implementing stances like zero waste, on site wastewater treatment, treatment of acid sludge's etc.
5. Regular checks on assets and liabilities and regular formulation of income and balance sheets, can hamper the risks of economic disasters.

Standing on the existing protocol, to me the role of engineers in disaster management can never be over emphasized. Due to the fact that we are trained to have a critical thinking mindset towards designs, calibration, processes, forecasting and above all problem solvers within our society and the world at large. All geared towards ensuring the health safety and environment. Over the years engineers have contributed majorly in mitigating hazards or risk and became successful in making the world a better place to live.

Hello everyone.
Today the topic given to us is the role of engineers in disaster management.
The role of engineers in disaster management is very important because technology is increasing day by day nowadays we are able to look before the disaster happen in a particular area and the measure should be taken before the disaster and natural disaster. After the disaster happen there are a lot of losses happen in an area like the falling of buildings rods pillars pools etc the engineers give the best solution to do it.

Hello everyone. I am Narinder.
According to me, an engineer plays a vital role in disaster management. They can detect any disaster by using special instruments and alert us by forecasting. Which can decrease damage from the disaster. They also tell some techniques that how to handle a situation a time of disaster and what to do or what to not do. If there is a certain disaster come they help them by a no of methods. They remain fully prepared to face any disaster. Also, engineers make good quality of bridges, buildings poles of electricity, so that it remains safe or least damage at time of disasters. That's why engineer us also called the pillar of civilization. They are not only necessary for today's society but also these are doing very good for us for centuries.
Thank you.

As quote say, 'Nation development is in engineers hand'. Yes, this is true, in today's world engineers are beneficial to grow socially, to live a lavish life, to make the web close. Without engineer, we are not able to stay. Irrigation system- the supply of water, agriculture field, canals, barrage, weir are constructed and designed by Engineer, so the useful water reaches to us. Vehicles by mechanical engineer assembled so that we are able to travel. Various apps made by computer engineer in wide use and just in one click we can do our work easy.

Well as everyone said in this discussion, engineers play a great role not only in today's society but since many years. Having a great safe sleep under the fan or AC in a completely protected room could have not been possible without engineers. There could have been no developed communication facilities without an IT or Computer engineer, there won't be any transportation without an Automobile engineer, without an electronic and mechanical engineer having a comfortable sleep will be a dream. Even though doctors save us, engineering principles had enhanced the positive results of an operation.
Coming to the point, "role of engineers in disaster management", many road accidents have been reduced due to improved technology like sensors etc.
Having a prototype of a building or vehicle or machine before creating actual models, with the help of design software has reduced or maybe eliminated many risk factors. Thanks to those design engineers.
In my personal experience, Still, there is a major concern that most people in some rural areas are thinking that engineering is worthless and are stopping their children from choosing this awesome degree.
Thank you!
