Abstract

This chapter provides a review of Homeland Security educational development since the establishment of the Department of Homeland Security in 2003. Scholars question whether Homeland Security is its own discipline or not. Homeland Security evolved from many disciplines and the authors contend while more work remains, a more common understanding of this discipline is needed. This new body of knowledge should include standard foundational courses and application of gained skillsets for new students and professionals. Homeland Security while not officially an academic discipline at this time may well become a true one in the future.
