HSEP 5350 - Emergency and Strategic Planning

Students will develop an understanding of military and civilian planning processes and how to develop strategic plans and how to implement them in times of crisis. The military planning process is encapsulated in the concept of JOPP, or Joint Operations Planning Process, while federal emergency planning relies on the concept of SPAR, or Strategy, Plans, Analysis, and Risk, a methodology which integrates planning across various levels of civilian government. Both methods will be compared and contrasted with each other and other planning processes. (4 credits)
