What does an FBI field office do?

Hurricane_2 "Homeland Security Inside and Out" aimed to answer that question in a series of short interviews with the members of the FBI Houston Field Office, describing the duties of their individual offices. Duties explained include counterterrorism, public corruption, gang violence, cyber crime, civil rights and counter intelligence. The interviews are available at http://homelandsecurity.tamu.edu/FBI/.

Public radio programs

Cohostscropped_2 KAMU 90.9 FM and ICHS produce two weekly radio programs.

"Homeland Security: Inside & Out": Our weekly, one-hour public radio show, which we also issue as a podcast. Each program features interviews with key leaders at the federal, state and local levels of government, plus senior leaders in the private sector, academic community, and national press.


"Just a Minute for Homeland Security": a weekly, three-minute commentary by ICHS Director Dave McIntyre.

Research database

Tex_logo_2 The serious study of homeland security has long been hampered by the lack of formal structure to provide content and connectivity between issues. To fill this need, ICHS offers TEX: Taxonomy for Education and eXploration. TEX features more than 9,000 key online documents that represent the best in homeland security studies, filed under 21 categories. It is expanded and updated daily by Deputy Director Laura Spencer and her team of graduate research assistants.
