Can't make recommendations, but sounds like a good Civil Engineering program is what will fit for your daughter. Disasters are caused by various reasons - fires, floods, earthquakes, bombs, so the particlar engineering diciplines can change too.

As to universities - some will be better for advanced degrees (come back after you have your Bachelor's) - as I recall that's what my brother was told when he was looking at MIT.

One thing you'll want to ask when you are checking university engineering programs - what's the success rate for your graduates on getting their P.E. (professional engineer certification)? The higher success rate on getting their P.E. will speak a lot on the type of education the students are receiving.
