#576728. Center for Homeland Defense & Security
The mission of the Naval Postgraduate School Center for Homeland Defense and Security (CHDS) is to:
1) strengthen the national security of the United States by providing graduate-level educational programs
that meet the immediate and long-term leadership needs of organizations responsible for homeland defense and security;
2) advance the study of homeland security as a substantive field of research, scholarship, and professional discipline
that can contribute meaningfully to enhancing security while preserving liberty;
3) partner with other universities to share the MA curriculum and assist them in developing their own homeland security programs.
This increases the number and diversity of students enrolled in such programs.
Universities can take advantage of the DHS investment in the CHDS curriculum and avoid “reinventing the wheel;”
develop a cadre of local, state, and federal leasers who share substantive skills in analysis, interpretation, strategy
and policy development, and administration of approved policy.
The Naval Postgraduate School Center for Homeland Defense and Security (CHDS) offers a variety of graduate, executive, and certificate programs
designed to build leadership needed to prevent, deter, and respond to terrorist attacks in the U.S.,
as well as to enhance interagency and civil-military cooperation and communication.
Courses are taught by experts at NPS, practitioners and leaders who understand the practical land policy problems
that participants confront, as well as by distinguished guest lecturers from academic, research, and private sectors.
Each program supports and complements other homeland security training, education, and exercise activities
sponsored by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security National Preparedness Directorate, FEMA.
Programs include the Master of Arts Degree in Security Studies (Homeland Security and Defense);
the Homeland Security Executive Leaders Program; the Executive Education Seminars, delivered by the Mobile Education Team (MET);
the University and Agency Partnership Initiative; Homeland Security Self-study Courses;
the Homeland Security Digital Library (HSDL);
and Homeland Security Affairs, the online journal of the Center for Homeland Defense and Security.
