The domain of national security and foreign policy involves shaping strategies for both domestic protection and international relations, along with peacekeeping and global stability. Learners have access to classes that explore defense strategy evaluation, multinational institutions and procedures, the evolution of military tactics, as well as studies addressing contemporary security and diplomatic challenges. The curriculum additionally incorporates practical aspects of security governance, including dispute resolution techniques and international negotiation methods. Those focusing on this area primarily investigate these topics through interdisciplinary studies in political science, historical contexts, economic factors, and global relations.
