HSEM 4404 - Homeland Security Leadership Seminar

Prerequisite: NSEC 2251. This course will prepare future leaders for challenges they may face when crises or disasters impact their government unit or business.

This course will provide a review of recent disasters and what lessons were learned. 3 credits.
