The Washington University Emergency Management Department exists to provide a comprehensive and sustainable framework fostering a disaster resilient campus that allows our faculty, staff, and students to learn, perform research and deliver patient care. We will do this through an integrated, all-hazards approach encompassing mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery. Success will be rooted in strong collaboration with all of our School departments, our campus partners, affiliated hospitals, the university as a whole and a wide range of government and community organizations.
