Columbia’s Defense and Security Studies (DSS) advances understanding of global military issues through sustained analysis. Through its research and programming, DSS addresses the most urgent problems of our time; assesses strategies to resolve, mitigate, and meet these challenges; and initiates specific courses of action. DSS emphasizes interdisciplinary scholarship, integrating the work of several fields, to include history, anthropology, sociology, engineering, political science, and economics.
