Thesis: The 9/11 Commission (2004) discovered flaws with the Intelligence Community concerning information sharing, integrating intelligence, and following through on potential intelligence leads. This led to organizational changes with the establishment of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI), the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and the National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC). The Intelligence Community consists of 16 organizations, led by the DNI. Each organization works within the DNI’s policy framework. The DNI established IC policy to advance the IC mission objectives to meet national security needs.…
The Department of Homeland Security is an appropriate organizational design for several essential elements which are transferring immigration and naturalization service, border patrol, U.S. customs service, animal and plant health inspection service, U.S. Coastguard, and transportation security administration. The intelligence community mission is to supply the homeland security enterprise with timely intelligence information that is needed to protect, safe, resilient, and secure the United States. Also, national strategy defined homeland security as preventing the United States against terrorist attacks, decrease the America vulnerability to terrorism, reduce damage, and recover from terrorist attacks when it does occur (Burch, 2008). Moreover,…

When I was a young girl, I was always changing what I wanted to be when I grew older. I entertained several ideas ranging from princess to President. It was not until I came into adulthood that I realized my passion was with helping better our society; more specifically, bettering our younger generations. I went through several rough patches to come to this conclusion, but once my decision was made, I was convinced I had chosen exactly what I was meant to. I plan to pursue a double Masters of Social Work and my Juris Doctor so that I may become a Child’s Advocate.…
As the plan goes, two years at Douglas, two years at UBC one year at BCIT and I would have just enough education to be considered for a Masters of Public Policy degree. In my first year at Douglas college I went on a field school to the Philippines for international business. It wasn’t my designated field but it is essential for political scientists to have a firm grasp of economics. In today’s age, only those with a global knowledge of their associated field succeed. As the saying goes, “follow the money” and it’s easy to find who influences politics.…

I want to be the reason they are not stopped or even arrested based on reasonable suspicion for their race or ethnicity.…
Hello everyone, I currently serve in the military and have honestly attempted to complete this Criminal Justice degree for years. Every time I was on a roll, life in general happened with deployments and Permanent Duty Station moves and once again I would push my studies aside. Two years ago, I realized that military retirement was in the near future and I needed to put all my free time and energy to getting my Bachelor’s Degree. My wife and I prayed about what direction I needed to take to complete this goal. As I started to write down and plan how many classes I was going to take per 8 weeks, I finally realized that it was doable.…
I understand your point and I can see where you are coming from, but education should be a requirement within law enforcement. A majority of on the job experience as you stated do occur out in the field, but training does not account for the new direction of the criminal. Education changes the playing field and expanse the knowledge of the officer. The new era criminal is no longer on the street they now sitting behind computer and commit crimes across the country. An educated officer is much more tolerate to the people and the environment patrol, whereas an officer without a degree is less tolerate and quicker to use force.…
Another career is police officers, who are very important in keeping things calm and controlled in emergency situations. Being able to take orders without question and being organized are must to be a police officer (Ryan). There is also the basic physical discipline which is very much like military drills, that focus on the upper core. This helps build up upper body strength, which is very important when shooting a gun (Ryan). When wanting to pursue a career in law enforcement, the person must be at least 21, have a high school diploma or GED, be a US citizen, not convicted of a felony crime or serious misdemeanor offense, possess a valid license, and pass fitness requirements which can vary by agency (“City of Rapid City,SD| Home Page”).…
Intelligence in Homeland Security Introduction After the attack of 9/11 on the United States the Nation learned there were many areas that needed improvement in regards to the security of the homeland. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) had to take into account the lessons learned from 9/11, especially the shortfalls that were seen in intelligence gathering and make some major changes. The DHS is not the only agency that is responsible for gathering information for the Nation’s safety, there are many different national agencies that provide intelligence for homeland security. Some of the National agencies include offices that many have heard of like Customs and Border Patrol, the U.S. Coast Guard or the Secret Service, but there are other National agencies that contribute that most Americans may not know about.…

It focuses on political organizations such as legislatures, courts and executives.…
