The National Graduate School of Quality Management (NGS—http://www.ngs.edu/) offers a Master’s of Science in Homeland Security and Defense (HSD). The program emphasizes the role quality management can play in improving the satisfaction of HSD customers while reducing the use of resources systemically. NGS also offer a B.S. completion program with a specialization in HSD. Both the M.S. and B.S. programs require courses that address Emergency Management. Additionally, students in the NGS Doctorate of Business Administration program often pick HSD topics for their dissertation project.
During this conference, Dr. McIntyre will be looking for individuals who can provide success stories to be included in Vol. III of Business Continuity and Homeland Security, now in the planning stages.
