From Emergency Management:
In fall 2001, university and college program directors and chairs across the country had no way of knowing how the sudden advent of homeland security and advancement of emergency management as academic disciplines would soon be bearing down on their curriculum demands. The term “homeland security” did not exist, at least not as we have come to know it in the years that followed…While some academic institutions offer programs in homeland security, and others in emergency management, a growing number are combining the disciplines in various ways. Still, the number of four-year programs listed on FEMA’s site combining homeland security and emergency management in a degree title remains in the single digits.
