Minor in Emergency Management
24.0 credits
Natural or manmade disasters can strike at any time and anywhere. They take many forms—a hurricane, an earthquake, a tornado, a flood, a fire or a hazardous spill, an act of nature or an act of terrorism. Disasters can build over days or weeks, or hit suddenly, without warning. Every year, millions of people face disasters and their consequences.
This minor is designed to equip individuals with the fundamental competencies expected of professionals in the field of emergency management. The certificate provides the knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to be competent emergency managers.
Students interested in pursuing a minor in emergency management may include individuals majoring in architecture, civil engineering, construction management, criminal justice, political science, and professional studies.
