Emergency Managementprofessionals. The university approved the curriculum for Emergency Management Technologyprogram in the Fall of 2010. The program began admitting students in Spring Semester of 2011.The curriculum focuses on topics such as emergency planning, incident command, disasterresponse and recovery, hazard identification and mitigation, agency coordination, homelandsecurity, and community emergency training [3].The primary goal of the EMT program is to help students gain a well-rounded skill set that willallow them to succeed in a homeland security or emergency management position. To reach thisgoal, the existing courses in Emergency Management Technology need be enriched to inductcontents of telecommunication, nuclear technology
of Robotics. He has a passion to teach and to make it interesting and simple for students to advance in the field of Electrical/Electronic Engineering and STEM in general.
