Because the world needs professionals who are ready for anything
It’s more apparent than ever that responding to emergencies requires individuals with specialized knowledge, skills, and abilities.

You’ll benefit from Berkeley’s proven track record of excellence in the criminal justice and national security fields, as well as Berkeley’s accomplished faculty, many of whom have extensive relevant professional experience.
