In-residence students primarily come from United States Northern Command (USNORTHCOM) and North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD), both responsible for the defense of America, and industry associated with the robust homeland security and homeland defense community in Colorado Springs. Online students come primarily from Department of Defense, industry, and state and local government organizations involved in homeland security and homeland defense in the Colorado Springs and Denver areas and across the U.S. Dr. Jones previously served as Associate Professor of Public Administration with the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs at Syracuse University, Adjunct Faculty with the Graduate School of Public Affairs at the University of Colorado, and Deputy Department Head of the Department of Political Science at the U.S. Air Force Academy.

Dr. Jones’ research interests focus on leadership, management, organizational, interagency relationships, and intergovernmental relations aspects of homeland security and homeland defense.
