This modular course can be taken for graduate credit towards a Graduate Certificate in Maritime Security, a Master’s Degree in Maritime Systems, or as part of a professional development program.
COURSE DESCRIPTIONThe objective of this course is to enable students to understand the basic technologies used in Port Security applications, to participate in discussions of these at a management level, and to make management decisions in their areas of responsibility regarding relevant technology-based solutions.
INSTRUCTION AND ORGANIZATIONThis course will be taught by the actual developers of the technologies, and so students will be exposed to the present state-of-the-art as well as the future trends and potential “game-changing” technology developments that are years away. The course instructors are associated with the DHS Center of Excellence on Port Security (The National Center for Secure and Resilient Maritime Commerce or CSR). The course combines lectures and readings to develop an understanding of key concepts and principles. Participants are exposed to numerous case studies and illustrative examples. A team project allows students to integrate their knowledgeand apply it in a team environment. The course is designed to facilitate the sharing of experiences among the professionals who participate in the program.MODULE DIRECTOR
