Homeland Security and Emergency Management (Minor)

Personal safety and situational awareness are-or should be-a concern for everyone today, as emergency situations, such as an active-shooter or a natural disaster, can occur anywhere suddenly and without warning. As such, this minor is designed for criminal justice and noncriminal justice students alike; however, the courses in this minor also address how professionals in the respective fields work to prevent a crisis from occurring, as well as prepare for how they will respond to mitigate the negative consequences of the incident.

Total credit hours required for the minor: 15
