MGT-622 uses real-world disaster planning strategies and structures to prepare students for roles encompassing the construction of community or organizational disaster-preparedness programs. Using a scenario-based approach, students examine existing real-world planning strategies intended to prevent or mitigate the consequences of a disaster event, using the latest guidelines from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and FEMA, with emphasis on assessing risk, threats, and vulnerabilities to safeguard against disaster incidents.
Building preparedness plans, not just understanding them
The course's practical focus is on actually constructing community or organizational disaster-preparedness programs, going beyond understanding preparedness concepts into genuine plan-building competency.
Risk, threat, and vulnerability assessment as the planning foundation
MGT-622 grounds emergency planning in rigorous risk, threat, and vulnerability assessment, ensuring preparedness plans are built on genuine analysis of what a specific community or organization actually faces, not generic assumptions.
Key topics in MGT622
- Constructing disaster-preparedness programs
- Risk, threat, and vulnerability assessment

Worked example: risk assessment shaping a preparedness plan
- Generic preparedness plan: A template applied uniformly regardless of a community's actual specific risks
- Risk-assessed preparedness plan: A plan built around that specific community's genuine identified threats and vulnerabilities
- Lesson: MGT-622 teaches that effective preparedness planning must be grounded in this rigorous, community-specific risk assessment, not a one-size-fits-all template

Frequently asked questions
Every community or organization faces a genuinely distinct combination of hazards based on its specific geography, infrastructure, and population, and a preparedness plan built without rigorous assessment of these specific factors risks being generic and poorly matched to the actual risks that community faces, potentially leaving genuine vulnerabilities unaddressed. MGT-622 grounds planning in this assessment because effective preparedness depends on this community-specific analysis, not applying a standardized template uniformly.
MGT-620 establishes the foundational national frameworks and systems (NIMS, the National Preparedness System, the all-hazards concept) that structure the entire emergency management field, while MGT-622 applies that foundational knowledge into the practical, applied work of actually constructing a community or organizational disaster-preparedness plan using FEMA and DHS tools. A student typically needs MGT-620's conceptual foundation before MGT-622's applied plan-construction work becomes fully meaningful.
