Students can use this certificate to demonstrate a focused, specialized curricular emphasis in security studies that sets them apart from graduates with broader academic profiles. Students in the STEM disciplines, more specifically, will be able to demonstrate that they have attained core competencies in an area of the liberal arts that encompasses the broader geopolitical and strategic contexts in which their more technical professional expertise is embedded.
