Who We Are:
The Integrative Center for Homeland Security was established by the Texas A&M University System (TAMUS) Board of Regents in May 2002. The Center serves as an umbrella organization, facilitator and coordinator for all homeland security activities in a diverse set of programmatic areas across the A&M System. These areas include, but are not limited to, emergency response; food and water security; network/data security and information technology; social/political issues and politics; management of biohazards; physical infrastructure and transportation; counter measures/basic research; detection/remote sensing; physical countermeasures; and health issues.
