Security Studies

The Triangle Institute for Security Studies – TISS – is a cross-campus consortium dedicated to the study of national and international security.

TISS is made up of four universities in North Carolina’s Research Triangle: Duke University, North Carolina Central University, North Carolina State University, and the University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill.

Founded in 1958, TISS is one of the nation’s oldest academic centers committed to advancing scholarship and education on security studies. TISS promotes interdisciplinary research and collaboration between scholars, students, and practitioners, along with public engagement on critical matters of national and international security.
