The UW Institute for National Security Education
and Research has the following goals:
(1) Creating new models for interdisciplinary
teaching and learning on national security and intelligence issues,
(2) Developing a strategy to engage the UW’s
schools and colleges in a strategic planning effort to ensure that
UW INSER has maximum reach across the university community,
(3) Generating cutting-edge research on national
security and intelligence issues by engaging cross-disciplinary
faculty in a cogent and concerted manner,
(4) Integrating distance learning as a common
practice to create and expand educational opportunities, especially
as prospective students employed in the national security and
intelligence fields may be living and working around the globe for
extended periods of their careers,
(5) Researching how student cultural immersion
experiences abroad may influence the way students conduct research
on, analyze, and interpret events in these countries, and
(6) Generating community-level discussions about
national security and intelligence issues that allow diverse groups—students, parents, teachers, government officials, and corporate
managers—to explore together national security issues and the role
of intelligence in our democratic society.
