<h1>College of Emergency Preparedness, Homeland Security and Cybersecurity</h1>
    




    

<p><P><EM>Interim Dean<BR></EM>&nbsp;David L. Rousseau, Ph.D.</P>
<P><EM>Assistant to the Dean</EM><BR>&nbsp;Elizabeth Q. Gray</P>
<P>From hackers to hurricanes, suicide bombing to supply chain interruptions, infrastructure failures to infectious disease outbreaks, the nation’s governments, companies and non-profits must prepare for, protect against, respond to, and recover from a growing array of risks and threats.&nbsp;The fields of emergency preparedness, homeland security and cybersecurity are central to those efforts, and there is an ever growing demand for individuals&nbsp;knowledgeable in these areas.</P>
<H4>Mission</H4>
<P>The mission of the College of Emergency Preparedness, Homeland Security and Cybersecurity (CEHC) is to support high quality academic programs for undergraduate and graduate students, produce new knowledge though innovative research, and provide training and lifelong learning opportunities for professionals, all to help prepare for, protect against, respond to, and recover from a growing array of natural and man-made risks and threats in New York State and around the world.</P>
<H4>Diverse and Interdisciplinary Programming</H4>
<P>Emergency preparedness, homeland security and cybersecurity are dynamic and diverse fields. Like security threats themselves, the work required to protect the nation is constantly changing, cutting across numerous disciplines. The faculty at CEHC are drawn from several academic disciplines, including public administration, criminal justice, digital forensics, atmospheric science, public health, political science, computer science, informatics, and others.&nbsp; Many of the faculty have extensive experience working in the field, or are nationally or internationally recognized for their academic contributions to their fields.</P>
<H4>Experiential Learning</H4>
<P>A cornerstone of CEHC’s programming is the emphasis on experiential learning.&nbsp;Through authentic simulations, work with real-world clients, and applied research in contemporary and highly relevant topics, students will take what they have learned in the classroom and apply it in a complex and dynamic environment.&nbsp;Through this experience students internalize and contextualize the theoretical knowledge they have gained, hone their skills and capacities, and gain experience relevant to their future careers. University centers like the Center for Public Health Preparedness, the National Center for Security and Preparedness, and the Center for Information Forensics and Assurance, help to provide applied research and training opportunities for students, academics, and professionals.</P>
<H4>Academic Programs</H4>
<P><STRONG>Undergraduate</STRONG><BR>The College of Emergency Preparedness, Homeland Security and Cybersecurity currently offers a minor which is designed to provide students with broad overview of these three critical fields, as well as help students to develop critical thinking skills and subject area knowledge of public policy, management and risk analysis.&nbsp;The College intends to grow its undergraduate program offerings in the near future. For requirements for the minor see "Minors" in this Bulletin.</P>
<P><STRONG>Graduate</STRONG><BR>The College also is associated with three Certificates in Graduate Study, including a Certificate in Emergency Preparedness, Homeland Security and Cybersecurity, a Certificate in Public Health Surveillance and Preparedness, and a Certificate in Information Security.</P>

<P>All courses listed in this College are preceded by the prefix letter&nbsp;<EM>C</EM>.</P></p>
