MGT-324 Campus Emergencies Prevention, Response, and Recovery

This course provides an understanding and ability to navigate difficult aspects of dealing with campus emergencies-either natural events or human-caused events

including acts of violence for campus leaders; faculty governance; student governance; campus law enforcement and security departments; campus health, medical, and mental health services; campus public affairs; jurisdictional law enforcement and public safety agencies; and jurisdictional public information officers. The course consists of small, problem-based, integrated group activities that require a coordinated, integrated approach to solve.

Through tabletop scenarios, course participants will observe a developing incident and respond in a manner consistent with currently established campus and jurisdictional emergency operations procedures. Successfully preventing, deterring, responding to, and recovering from incidents in the campus community depends upon campus and community leaders recognizing the importance of an integrated approach beforehand. This holistic approach must recognize that successful nationally accepted emergency management principles used during responses to high-consequence events also can and will work when dealing with campus emergencies. Recent national events have demonstrated that campuses are not exempt from dealing with crises.

As these threats have increased and evolved, the US government has expanded its support of initiatives to prepare federal, state, tribal, and local law enforcement personnel, in conjunction with the collegiate community, to use an all-hazards approach when dealing with campus emergencies.

This class is designed to address campus emergencies associated with a spontaneous event requiring the attention of college and campus officials, emergency responders, elected officials, and other community stakeholders. The class consists of nine modules. These modules include classroom instruction, facilitated discussions, and practical activities involving scenario-driven problems intended to facilitate discussion and decision making.
