IRP: Industrial Risk Psychology [VE-R38]
Lecturer: George Claudiu Apostol
May 13 - 17, 2013 | 500
Industrial Risk Psychology is the scientific study of employees, workplaces, and organizational risks.

DAA: Decision Aid Approaches for Risk Management [VF-R39]
Lecturer: Chabane Mazri
April 22 - 26, 2013
Decision making is a process where multiple factors interact to shape the final outcome. Those factors can be technical, informational, emotional/psychological, cultural… Nevertheless, the limited rationality of economic operators makes the decision exercise more and more difficult in a more and more complex world. Safety management requires short, mid and long term decisions that may highly influence the ability of the organization to cope with its risks.

RP&C: Risk Perception and Risk Communication [VC-R34]
Lecturer: Britt-Marie Drottz Sjöberg
March 4 - 8, 2013 | 1500
This course presents theoretical backgrounds and state-of-the-art research issues on perception and communication of risk. It aims to provide a solid basis for further developments of such work tasks by including theoretical achievements in the related fields, various examples from field work, and an internal training exercise. The understanding of communication processes and the improving of information and communication techniques related to risk and hazards are central themes of the course. The course will also provide insight into selected historical aspects as well as current topics and literature.
In order to facilitate the bridge between theory and practice, a special attention will be given to two methodologies that enable the implementation of Risk Perception and Risk Communication concepts: The Delphi and the Focus Group. Beyond their description, this unit will be complemented with exercises based on experience of Focus & Delphi group work.

S&RA: Safety and Reliability Analysis [VC-R21]
Lecturer: Jørn Vatn
February 4 - 8, 2013 | 1500
This course presents the basic theory for safety and reliability analysis. The starting point is definition and discussion of basic concepts related to reliability and risk analysis. Then qualitative techniques like functional analysis, FMECA and identification and evaluation of faults and hazards are introduced. The next step is to introduce familiar quantification techniques like reliability block diagrams, fault- and event tree analysis, and Markov methods. Special attention is paid to safety-critical systems (IEC 61508) where analysis of systems with common cause failures is important. The course ends with methods for estimation of failure rates and a survey of reliability data sources.
