MDEM

York's Master of Disaster & Emergency Management (MDEM) is the only graduate program of its kind in Ontario and one of only two in Canada. The program equips students with the skills and competencies required to prepare for, mitigate, respond to and recover from local, national and international disasters and emergencies. Studying on either a full-time or part-time basis in a flexible program that will allow you to pursue your own area of special interest, you will learn from an impressive group of academics with expertise in areas like environmental risks and management, natural hazards, business continuity planning, public health, humanitarian law, crisis management, war and complex emergencies.

PhD

ºÚÁϸ£ÀûÍø's newly established PhD in Disaster & Emergency Management is the first such program in Canada. These new scholars – and the knowledge they produce – will contribute to developing theory and practice that will help those in Canada and around the world reduce the negative impacts of disasters and emergencies. The doctoral program is offered on a full-time and part-time basis, and prepares you to synthesize large amounts of complex information and make sound decisions in challenging and often difficult circumstances. The PhD in Disaster and Emergency Management program is designed for holders of master's degrees in DEM and related fields (such as environmental studies/sciences, public policy, health, and similar disciplines) who wish to pursue advanced studies and research.
