Higher Education Program

The FEMA Higher Ed newsletter is in summer hiatus. It will resume in fall of 2023.

The HiEd website will be updated later this year but is not going away! Some older materials may be moved to the NETC Library and will still be publicly available, but the website will continue to be the main hub for HiEd related information, resources, and the College List.


  • All materials published before 2021 have been removed from the HiEd website
  • If you are trying to locate a missing resource, please contact the FEMA Higher Education Progam

Stay up to date on all things FEMA HiEd by subscribing to our distribution through the HiEd email address.

The mission of the Higher Education Program is to engage emergency management academia, professional organizations, and practitioners to work together to foster a culture of continuous learning and innovation through education and research to meet the challenges that confront the Nation.

Since 1994, the Higher Education Program has helped foster growth in the academic community to include college and university-based programs in emergency management, homeland security, and related fields. For more information go to The College List.

If you have questions, please contact the FEMA Higher Education Program at FEMA-HiEd@fema.dhs.gov. Please note: many of the linked websites are not Federal websites and may not operate under the same laws, regulations and policies.
