The Bachelor of Science Degree in Public Safety Administration is designed to meet the professional development needs of in-service and entry-level personnel in public safety organizations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Historically, education for public safety professionals has centered on the more technical aspects of the positions. Clearly, technical training is vital to preparedness and success in the public safety field. But, in today\u2019s world, successful public safety professionals must possess a much broader knowledge of the managerial and organizational components of public service. They must have a deeper understanding of how domestic and worldwide issues, such as terrorism, impact their organizations both internally and from the public\u2019s perspective. The Public Safety Administration pro- gram was created to address this need. The goal of this program is to provide public safety professionals the education they need to be more effective as leaders in their organizations and advance in their careers. This degree prepares students for careers in departments including, Fire and EMS, Criminal Justice, and Emergency and Disaster Management. In addition, this degree is available to help students secure jobs at the local, state and federal levels.<\/span><\/p>\n

Employment trends in this career field indicate that there is an increased need in providing students with a new and innovative curriculum that would provide the necessary knowledge and facilitate the development of skills needed to assume administrative and leadership roles in public safety organizations. Growth in this industry is related to changes in the global climate and societal concerns. Cities, counties and the states are major employers of public safety employees and need employees who can respond to natural and other disasters.<\/span><\/p>\n

The degree program in Public Safety Administration offers four concentrations: Criminal Justice, Emergency and Disaster Management, Emergency Medical Systems, and Fire Administration with twenty-one (21) credit hours of concentration courses as listed below.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
