Overview

Our mission is to educate creative and agile professionals: critical thinkers who use data and analysis to create strategic, innovative solutions; problem solvers with tactical experience and a sophisticated understanding of the world around them; and leaders with a passion for building prepared, resilient, and safe organizations and communities.

Highlights

Our Threat and Response Management students at University of Chicago are health care professionals, first responders, volunteers, new graduates, and risk managers. They work for governments, not-for-profits, hospitals, and large corporations.

Some are disaster response volunteers looking for a new career. Others have significant experience in the field and are seeking a graduate degree to secure a new role or promotion. Together, they create a vibrant and diverse classroom where they learn from each other, challenge their assumptions and solve real-world problems.
