Study involves both management and technical aspects of law enforcement, fire protection, emergency medical services, and emergency planning.

This two-year degree program is designed for a student to work full-time in the public services field and attend school full-time on off-duty days. Classes are 8 weeks allowing students to move through more quickly.

Coursework includes classroom and laboratory exercises to introduce the student to various aspects of emergency preparedness, protection, and enforcement. Students will learn technical and administrative skills such as investigative principles, hazardous materials, codes, standards, emergency agency operations, and finance.

Career Opportunities

Employment opportunities include ambulance services, fire/rescue agencies, law enforcement agencies, fire marshal offices, industrial firms, educational institutions, emergency management offices, and other government agencies.
