Homeland Security
Professionals who work in Homeland Security anticipate, prepare for, and prevent and react to everything from pandemics to hurricanes to terrorism. They help to reduce our nation's vulnerabilities and to minimize the damage from catastrophic events. Many homeland security jobs are with state, federal, and local agencies, but there are plenty of career opportunities in private companies and nonprofit organizations.
