National Intelligence

Join us for “Battleground Berlin,” a four-week course exploring how national intelligence practices shape political and security events such as World War II, the Cold War, the Global War on Terror, and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Meet with national security experts from both sides of the Atlantic and visit historical and cultural sites in Berlin – a city known as the Capital of Spies. Curriculum is designed and taught by Erinn Whitaker, who served at the US Embassy in Berlin.
