Do you teach at the college level? Do you need to know more about how democracies defend themselves from terrorists? Would you like your students to understand the threat of terrorism ?
The Foundation for the Defense of Democracies is accepting applications for its Academic Fellows anti-terrorism training program. This program provides university professors with a detailed understanding of the terror threat that faces our nation and sister democracies. Centered on a 10-day course taught in conjunction with Tel Aviv University, the program takes place entirely in Israel and runs May 27-June 7 (travel inclusive). Participants interact with academics, diplomats, military and intelligence officials, and politicians from Israel, Jordan, India, Turkey and the United States. They also visit military bases, border zones and other security installations to learn the practical side of deterring terrorist attacks. All expenses are paid by FDD.
FDD runs a similar program for undergraduate students that gives them access to cutting edge information on terrorism and prepares them for national security careers.
More information on both programs is here. Testimonials from past participants are here and here.
