Terrorism Studies Minor

Coordinator: Robert McDonnell

The minor in terrorism studies is designed to accommodate the student who is majoring in criminal justice, political science, religion, or some other discipline and is interested in pursuing a career in law enforcement, corrections, law, and/or government. It provides the student an interdisciplinary approach within the social sciences and addresses the unique challenges presented by terrorism and its impact on our national security and the political world. The program examines how this phenomenon impacts democratic societies and the geo-political environment in the face of an unparalleled threat environment.
