Homeland Security
Develop the skills and abilities needed to identify, mitigate and respond to domestic security and terrorism threats.
At Park University, our Homeland Security minor is designed for students interested in advancing their careers while helping to address and respond to domestic and international homeland security issues.
A Homeland Security minor can enhance a degree in a related field and allow you to gain expertise in a specialized area without committing to a homeland security degree program. Should you decide you want a more immersive focus in the homeland security field, you can always pursue your degree in homeland security.
