USC Affiliated Global Partner Programs
1. The School of Russian & Asian Studies (SRAS):
Security & Society
http://www.sras.org//security
The semester offering focuses on Security and Society in the Information Age.
We examine current issues such cybersecurity, information warfare, and how
new and social media are changing the face of modern democracies. The
Summer School session takes a broad but intensive approach looking at
traditional and contemporary security issues. These range from maintaining
international partnerships to developing domestic criminal justice and
healthy ecological, demographic, entrepreneurial, and civic environments.
Both semester and summer sessions offer a look at a case-study of one of the
worst security failures of modern history: the Holocaust.
