The online Homeland Security A.S. degree from Monroe Community College equips you with the knowledge and skills to provide vital prevention and protection services to our country and your community. The accredited, two-year degree inspires students to discover a world of career opportunities in national, private, community, or global security.


Homeland security experts are the people who protect us from and respond to national disasters, terrorism, and public health crises. Graduates with a homeland security degree enjoy opportunities in law enforcement, intelligence analysis, information security, infrastructure protection, emergency management, and many others. Learn about joining the front lines as an immigration or customs inspector, a trained expert in law enforcement, or an emergency medical services provider. If you prefer to combat domestic and global threats online, the homeland security degree prepares you to work behind the scenes in cybersecurity and emergency planning.


After earning your homeland security degree, you are ready to transfer as a junior to a bachelor's degree program in homeland security, security studies, or a related major at a SUNY school.
