Emergency Management & Homeland Security

    A wide variety of rewarding career options await graduates of Penn College's emergency management program, the focus of a new video on the college's YouTube channel. The bachelor's degree prepares students for management positions in government, public health, health care agencies, and a broad spectrum of industries in which planning for potential emergencies is paramount. "A lot of people, when they come into emergency management, know and think of county-level emergency management, state-level emergency management; they think of FEMA or Homeland Security," says David E. Bjorkman, an emergency management/social science instructor in the college's School of Sciences, Humanities & Visual Communications. "Emergency management and disasters touch every aspect of community life. Every organization. No one is immune to any disasters." The piece was crafted by Tristan D. Scott, a student videographer/editor, under direction of  Christopher J. Leigh, video production coordinator.
