Academic Engagement Overview

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Office of Academic Engagement (OAE) works with school administrators, faculty, students, and the academic community on a range of issues. DHS formed the Office of Academic Engagement (OAE) in 2011 to strengthen the Department’s relationship with the academic community in three functional areas of engagement, resilience, and outreach.
