Center for Intelligence and Crime Analysis

Housed within the Sam Houston State University College of Criminal Justice, the Institute of Homeland Security, is home to the Center for Intelligence and Crime Analysis (CICA). It's dedicated to helping public safety agencies and critical infrastructure organizations improve their analytical capabilities through professional development, education, and research.

There's no secret that the public and private sectors are facing a range of threats and opportunities in today's interconnected world.

To build organizational resiliency and improve performance, it is crucial to understand both external and internal risk factors.
