Milledge Austin, for JAGWire from Augusta University Wrote:Augusta University has received approval from the University System of Georgia Board of Regents to offer a first-of-its-kind PhD in Intelligence, Defense, and Cybersecurity Policy that will be known as AU’s PhD in national defense.
The new program, the first PhD program offered by Pamplin College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences at AU, will offer students extensive core work with required credit hours in research methods, intelligence studies, strategic cybersecurity and traditional security studies. The aim of the program is to give students a broad-based understanding of security studies. […]
Developed as a professional degree, it is designed for academic and government professionals and includes coverage of theory and practice. The program is designed to enhance the strategic and practical knowledge of students already working in national defense, as well as those who are looking to secure careers with the Department of Defense (DoD), other federal agencies or academic institutions and think tanks aligned with the defense community.
The program’s hybrid-online instructional method will feature a mixture of mostly synchronous courses with some asynchronous options, opening the program to interested applicants nationwide, particularly those already in the workforce. This expands its potential reach to the entire nation, including all DoD sites, bases and federal agencies.

AU to launch new PhD in Intelligence, Defense, and Cybersecurity Policy (Milledge Austin, JAGWire [Augusta University], August 14, 2024) Cost to out-of-state students is $822 per hour or just under $50,000 plus fees. The program is cheaper for GA residents and active duty service members stationed in Georgia.

Seems like an interesting program, but too rich for my blood and I have to say... seems expensive for a brand new just-launched degree with no street cred behind it yet.

There is a huge military presence in the Augusta area due to Fort Gordon in Grovetown, GA and the Savannah River National Laboratory across the border in Aiken, SC. So a degree like this is catered for them. They wouldn't be paying $50K with their military education benefits.
