Abstract
The education about earthquakes disasters to the students in Public Health Faculty Serambi Mekkah University (FKM-USM) is very necessary, because with the education the students will be prepare anything regarding the hazards come to them and they will be able to find out the ways to save themselves when the earthquake occurs, other than they also have got the curriculum due to disasters management, so they have the way to save themselves through the preparedness process to avoid the disasters.The problems arising in the FKM-USM the buildings was not resistant against earthquakes, in fact, during the 2004 earthquake there are had some cracks on the side of the building, it will make the process of teaching and learning would be disrupted if an earthquake happen again. Beside that in FKM-USM does not have any signs to save themselves in the event of a disaster, such as a limited doors, evacuation directions are not clear, P3K equipment, etc.This research provides a number of questions to the students related to the earthquake, and the response from students was very diverse, but in essence the answer leads to things that are positive.The sampling technique using purposive sampling, ie sampling technique with particular consideration. This technique can be interpreted as a sampling process to determine in advance the number of samples to be taken, then the sample selection is done on the basis of specific objectives, and the results students are expected to know the actions that will be performed at the time of the earthquake threat and in order to reduce risk disaster.

INTRODUCTION
Disaster is an event that threaten and disrupt the lives and livelihoods caused by both natural factors and / or factors non-natural and human factors that lead to the emergence of human casualties, environmental damage, loss of property, and the psychological impact.
Preparedness is a series of activities undertaken by the organization to anticipate disasters and through appropriate measures and efficient.
The disaster in Aceh on 26 December 2004 was a huge disaster that make a lot of loss and damage in any sector. The earthquake is the one type of the disaster, and the earthquake are most dominant occurred in Aceh. These research was conducted in FKM- USM on February 17, 2014 due to FKM-USM already implementing a curriculum that was based on to the Disaster Management.
The Purpose of Research
The students, lecturers and staff of academic at FKM-USM is expected able to determine the steps to be taken when the earthquakeoccurs, if we have and learn the disasters knowledge, then we will be able to avoid the large of number of human casualties and property or will reduce the disaster risk reduction.
The Benefit of Research
1. For Team Members
As the one of the reference in writing the papers, so that will help to improve in writing any papers, especially in earthquake knowledge and will provide added value forteam members regarding the knowledge of the earthquake.
2. For Community
The community able to know several problems about the earthquake and we hope after they read these papers, they will provide the ability in protecting the environment because the natural resources are among the factors that affect the welfare of beings living.
3. For Students
The students will have the added value about the earthquake that which often occurs in Aceh, starting from the understanding, cause, impact and the way to mitigation, so that after the students read these papers they will always able to protecting the environment.
METHODOLOGY
This research was using analisys descriptif, technic sampling was using the purposive sampling, and the population are the students in FKM-USM in conducting observation and interviewing.
Here are the list of numbers the questions that we asking to the students in FKM- USM
1. How do you respond to the frequent earthquakes in Aceh ?
2. How do you react to an earthquake or if you are in the academic room ? 3. How do you think if an earthquake occurs while you're on the third floor ?
4. how do you think as a student to response the earthquake while you are studying in the class room ?
5. Have you ever heard about disaster mitigation ?
6. How do you prepare yourself if an earthquake occurs ?
7. Is the FKM-USM building is equipped with such systems in earthquake rescue ?
8. What Do you think that FKM-USM building when an earthquake is feasible and resistant to earthquakes ?
9. Is it necessary to provide rescue system in FKM ? 10. Is evacuation route available or have many door ?
11. Aceh is a disaster area, what should be done by the Aceh government in addressing this matter in order to reduce disaster risk ?
12. How do you think the existing early warning system in Aceh, do you know the purposes ?
13. What do you think when hearing about the disaster ? 14. What are the kinds of disaster you know ?
15. Is there any knowledge obtained from FKM-USM related disasters ?
Here are the list of numbers the questions that we asking to the lecturers and staff of academic in FKM-USM
1. How do you respond to the frequent earthquakes in Aceh ?
2. How do you react to an earthquake or if you are in the academic room ?
3. what if there was an earthquake and the earthquake when you're on the third floor, what would you willdo ?
4. Is the FKM-USM building is equipped with such systems in earthquake rescue ? 5. Have you ever been trained in ways to deal with the earthquake evacuation ?
RESULT AND DISCUSSION
After we conduct the observations and interviews in FKM-USM, it was founded many varied answers from the respondents related to earthquake preparedness. The answer from the respondents essentially has a positive thing but at the time of the incident as lost all of control (panic, screams hysterically, running) to save themselves to the safe places.
The answer from them are like below :
1. The earthquake in Aceh will makeafraid and unsafe, because Aceh still in vulnerability area.
2. Out from academic room and go to open places, wait until safe and come back to work again
3. The government should make the simulation before disaster occur, make evacuation road in order to the people understand where should go to safe themselves.
4. The building in FKM-USM is not equipped with the rescue system 5. Go up to the roof, and wait until safe, then try go to the safe places
The earthquake is a vibration or shock that occurs as a result of activity within the earth, the ground we walk on, generally in the form of magma activity and shifting plates of the earth. The earth we walk on like a "soccer ball", which consists of several plates of skin. It's just a slab of earth (plate tectonics) always caused by the activity of magma moving beneath it.
Indonesia is the country that is located at the confluence of three major plates of the earth: the Eurasian plate, the Indo-Australian plate and the Pacific plate. This is the land which has the potential for large earthquakes and volcanoes in the world. But on the other hand, this country is very fertile, full of biodiversity, and was rich in mineral resources. All that can not be separated from Indonesia's position in the heart of the earth three plates meeting.
CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
1. FKM-USM inadequate building in earthquake disaster mitigation process, because the building does not have the tools and signposts along the evacuation route.
2. Lack of the training and simulation or SOP when an earthquake occurs. 3. FKM-USM is located close to the sea.
4. Training and simulation routinely
5. The Building should be in accordance with the standard operating procedures for disaster earthquake resistant.
