This course will look in depth at four aspects of the relationship between science, technology, and homeland security, examining: technologies that can threaten and technologies that can strengthen U.S. homeland security, policy challenges posed by homeland security technologies, U.S. systems that develop and field homeland security technologies, and effects that homeland security policies have on the scientific enterprise, and vice versa.
