Emergency Management
Business and Management
Emergency Management is the discipline of preparing for, responding to, mitigating, and recovering from disasters and large-scale emergencies, including natural disasters, pandemics, and industrial accidents. Professionals in this field—often working for government agencies, hospitals, or corporations—develop response plans, coordinate multi-agency drills, and manage resources during crises like hurricanes, wildfires, or terrorist incidents. It draws on skills in logistics, risk assessment, public communication, and incident command systems (such as FEMA's National Incident Management System).
