The mission of the College of Emergency Preparedness, Homeland Security, and Cybersecurity (CEHC) and its constituent departments is to make a difference in the world by providing high-quality academic programs, blending an interdisciplinary and entrepreneurial spirit, fostering enthusiasm for learning and teaching, promoting operational application of knowledge, and leading cutting-edge research initiatives that bring together people, technology, and knowledge to address the challenges of the 21st century. As the first college of its kind in the nation, CEHC is growing rapidly as it has recently established both undergraduate and graduate academic programs in Cybersecurity, Emergency Management, and Homeland Security, in addition to the already established Informatics and Information Science programs. One of the hallmarks of the College and its departments is the crosscutting nature of the education and research efforts across these fields. UAlbany and the State of New York are committed to seeing the College become a global leader in education and research in these fields and are providing significant support to the establishment and planned growth of the unit. Like the University, the College and the departments are committed to increased diversity in all its activities. Faculty and students are encouraged to engage with relevant communities in research and teaching, and the Department has a strong record of such engagement both locally and abroad.

The College also houses an interdisciplinary doctoral program in Information Science, including specializations in Data Analytics and Information Assurance. CEHC faculty, along with affiliated faculty from the School of Business, Rockefeller College, College of Engineering and Applied Sciences, and College of Arts and Sciences, support a program of about 40 doctoral students. In addition to their core courses, students select a primary and secondary specialization to demonstrate a breadth of understanding of the information fields.

Like the University, the College and the departments are committed to increased diversity in all its activities. Faculty and students are encouraged to engage with relevant communities in research and teaching, and the Department has a strong record of such engagement both locally and abroad. We wish to hire a colleague whose scholarship and teaching foster transformation toward a more just society and involves a meaningful partnership with community-based organizations. We value diverse lived experiences that inform research, teaching, and mentoring.
