Up one levelTEX: Taxonomy for Education and eXploration
The serious study of Homeland Security is hampered by the lack of formal structure to provide content and connectivity between issues. This taxonomy is offered to fill this need. It will be continually expanded and revised by the students and faculty of Texas A&M University. To provide information and feed back, please contact the ICHS at homelandsecurity@tamu.edu.
The Workshop on National Needs (WON2), with After-Action Report, plus video
On May 17-18, the Homeland Security and Defense Education Consortium (HSDEC) and the Integrative Center for Homeland Security at Texas A&M co-hosted a very successful “Workshop on National Needs," which focused on continuing the development of core requirements for a nationwide curriculum for homeland security graduate education. We played host to representatives from about a dozen schools (from New York, District of Columbia, Virginia, North Carolina, Colorado, California, Texas and other states), and about 20 presenters from the homeland security workforce. These speakers were drawn from DHS, DOE, DOE, ICE, border patrol, Business Executives for National Security, state and local government, private industry, and other locations. Together, they explored the question: “What do you want a new employee with a masters degree in homeland security to know when he or she arrives for work?”
