International Security

To draw attention to areas of strength and excellence at Illinois, the Center for Global Studies organizes global issues research, teaching and outreach into Research Clusters that bridge disciplines, regions, and professions, and support cutting-edge innovations in teaching and conceptualizing global studies.

The International Security Research Cluster includes interdisciplinary courses and seminars that address cutting-edge topics on national, regional, and global security, including technological, biological, and policy topics and impacts. The Program in Arms Control, Disarmament and International Security (ACDIS), a MacArthur Foundation grantee, is an active partner with CGS on developing activities in this area.
