DEM 690 - Capstone in Disaster and Emergency Management

The capstone course provides the opportunity to synthesize emergency management topics into a final capstone project. The projects will vary by student interest and identified needs but will include a community needs or hazard vulnerability assessment and will address a particular problem or problems facing the community under study. The course will apply emergency management concepts, utilize team work, work through the phases of emergency management, and conduct after action reporting in a simulated disaster situation.
