Work to protect America. With your online Bachelor of Arts in Homeland Security and Emergency Management degree from Ashford University, you gain a broad view of homeland security and emergency preparedness at the federal, state, and local levels.
In the post-911 era, the US government created the Department of Homeland Security, which prepares for, prevents, and responds to domestic emergencies. With this degree program, you will transcend a single discipline to consider counter-terrorism, planning for natural disasters, and terrorism response. Your interdisciplinary online courses include ethics, international relations, cyber crime, and an emphasis on American government and the United States Constitution. This program also includes a strong research and writing component.
