Disaster management is so far one of the best degree courses to study in Kenya. The course is highly marketable especially when pursued at post graduate level.
Since many companies would want to be risk free, having disaster managers department could greatly boost their confidence in matters to do with security. This is to the advantage of individuals who study disaster management at local universities.
Some of the best companies to work for include Kenyan counties, G4S, hospitals, banks, insurance companies, audit companies, National Drought Management Authority, Kenya Power, Kenya Airways, Kenya Airports Authority, manufacturing companies and a host of other companies that have a department of disaster management.
In a scale of 1-10, I would rate the course 7 in terms of marketability. To be honest, if you are aggressive enough, you won’t be jobless in Kenya.
