Choosing a Great Homeland Security School for Your Bachelor's Degree
Your choice of homeland security for getting your bachelor's degree school matters. Important measures of a quality homeland security program can vary widely even among the top schools. When choosing a school we recommend considering some of the following factors:
Quality Overall Is Important
The overall quality of a bachelor's degree school is important to ensure a quality education, not just how well they do in a particular major. To take this into account we include a college's overall Best Colleges ranking which itself looks at a combination of different factors like degree completion, educational resources, student body caliber and post-graduation earnings for the school as a whole.
Other Factors We Consider
The metrics below are just some of the other metrics that we use to determine our rankings.
- Major Focus - How many resources a school devotes to homeland security students as compared to other majors.
- Major Demand - How many other homeland security students want to attend this school to pursue a bachelor's degree.
- Educational Resources - How many resources are allocated to students. These resources may include educational expenditures per student, number of students per instructor, and graduation rate among other things.
- Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized homeland security related body.
Our full ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best colleges for homeland security students working on their bachelor's degree.
