CURRICULUM


The program is offered as both a full-degree program and a
certificate program for professionals looking for a less intensive
educational experience. The degree program is designed as a
36-credit,12-course curriculum that can be completed in one to
three years depending on the course load taken by the student.
The courses will be offered in four 12-week semesters per year.
Ten courses will be offered entirely in a distance-learning format
using the BlackBoard® course-management system with a variety of teaching modalities such as online PowerPoint lectures with audio, asynchronous discussion boards, synchronous chat rooms, reading assignments, research papers, online journals and online testing. Students will be required to attend one 5-day, on-campus, summer seminar that will include live lectures, hands-on-skills labs, role-playing seminars, disaster drills and a table-top exercise. This summer seminar is a mandatory component of two of the required courses (DMM-611 and DMM-647). Students will also be required to complete a capstone experience that has several options, but a formal thesis is not required.
