Thank you for your interest in Michigan Technological University's Multi-Hazard Mitigation
Plan. The plan will be updated during the 2023 and 2024 academic years.
What is Hazard Mitigation?
Hazard mitigation planning reduces the loss of life and property by minimizing the impact of disasters. It begins by identifying natural disaster risks and vulnerabilities on campus. After identifying these risks, long-tern strategies are developed for protecting people and property from similar future events. Mitigation plans are key to breaking the cycle of disaster damage and reconstruction. Our plan also includes human-caused hazards such as hazardous materials, cyber threats, pandemics, and active shooters. A hard copy of the 2020-2025 Michigan Tech Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan is available to view in the Facilities Management department at 100 Facilities Building, Houghton, MI. To receive a digital copy of the plan, please e-mail facilities@mtu.edu.
The 2025 Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan has been submitted for review and aprpoval.
