One thesis area I am thinking of exploring is emergency management systems.
I do some volunteering that involves emergency response. I can't write too much about this for public consumption. I am thinking with the present security state I could possibly do some funded research on emergency management or response systems. I could build on studies I have done in risk and designing out risk in the the physical envrionment of cities and push my probability studies around these readings and perhaps make some kind of systems model which would suggest management of risk at the same time bring in larger and broader Marxist critques of the whole security state view. I could also use my recent legal studies to keep grounded and to stay relevent and realistic when doing this project. My math background would need to be tested and I would have to involve some computing in some way perhaps.
