Homeland Security and Applied Intelligence
Do you want to be in the FBI? Are you interested in national or world security issues? Do you want to learn about the threat of terrorism? Or maybe you are great with data and can easily see patterns and determine insights.
By the time you graduate, you will be able to use intelligence data to anticipate and prevent organized crime activities, such as terrorism. However, you can use the skills you develop in this program outside of traditional criminal justice programs. Your ability to analyze data and present insights will be just as valued in the boardroom of a Fortune 500 company as it will in government offices in Washington, D.C.
