Best Homeland Security Doctor’s Degree Colleges in the United States

Average Earnings

To determine the overall quality of a graduate school, one factor we look at is the average early-career salary of those receiving their doctor's degree from the school. After all, your doctor's degree won't mean much if it doesn't help you find a job that will help you earn a living.

Other Factors We Consider

In addition to the above, you should consider some of the following factors:

• Major Focus - How much a school focuses on homeland security students vs. other majors.
• Major Demand - How many other homeland security students want to attend this school to pursue a doctor's degree.
• Educational Resources - The amount of money and other resources allocated to students while they are pursuing their degree. These resources include such things as number of students per instructor and education expenditures per student.
• Student Debt - How much debt homeland security students go into to obtain their doctor's degree and how well they are able to pay back that debt.
• 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 doctor's degree.

Insufficient Data for the United States

Unfortunately , we don't have enough facts to form a ranking of the top quality colleges for homeland security in the United States. This is usually due to there not being enough schools in the United States that both offer homeland security and provided enough information for us to do a detailed analysis.
