College Catalog - Programs of Study
Homeland Security has become an integral part of our society. The certificate in Homeland Security provides students with the opportunity to choose three pathways in homeland security.
Each pathway consists of three core courses focusing on the history and development of homeland security, intelligence analysis and how agencies share information to stop terrorist attacks, and border and transportation security issues.
Students then decide which track they wish to pursue. The concentration in emergency management focuses on the depths of terrorism. The concentration in law enforcement provides students with the tools to enter into the law enforcement community, and the concentration in cybersecurity provides a pathway for students interested in defending our nation from a cyberterrorist attack or cyber disruption.
Courses in the Emergency Management concentration can be applied to the Associate Degree in Emergency Management/Homeland Security. See this page for information on the associate degree.
Note: Many courses require prerequisites and/or testing. See course descriptions for details.
