Office of Emergency Management Hazard Mitigation Planning - Help Focus Strategies
March 30 - April 30
Complete the survey here
As part of the continued efforts to keep our campus safe, N.C. A&T is updating the Hazard Mitigation Plan. Hazard mitigation planning reduces loss of life and property by minimizing the impact of disasters. It begins with identifying all hazards, risks and vulnerabilities that are common in our area and on campus. After identifying these risks, we develop long-term strategies for protecting people and property from similar events.
Mitigation plans are key to breaking the cycle of disaster damage and reconstruction. As a part of this plan update, we ask that you take a moment to fill out the survey and share your opinions on what you think our greatest threats are. Your feedback will help focus our planning for mitigation strategies.
For questions or more information on this process, please reach out to the Office of Emergency Management at oem@ncat.edu

Calling all undergraduate students! Apply for Code+, a 10-week immersive summer coding experience on Duke’s campus.

Code+ emphasizes:
- Real-world, stakeholder-driven projects
- Exposure to multiple tech stacks
- Professional skill development
- Mentorship and peer community
This project-based summer experience is designed for students with no prior tech work experience.
