Security and Intelligence Studies, Minor

Program Overview

Security and Intelligence Studies is an interdisciplinary approach to the study of national security policy. The Minor in Security and Intelligence Studies encourages students to gain a broad, well-rounded understanding of the ethics, processes, priorities, and outcomes of national security policy, with a focus on the role of information and intelligence in the policymaking process. The minor’s interdisciplinary approach enables students to select courses across a wide range of disciplines. It is designed to prepare students to work in a wide range of occupations in the government, private, non-profit sectors that deal with national security broadly understood, and for the obligations of state, national, and global citizenship in the 21st century.
