Security Scholars Program
The Security Scholars Program,[1]also known as the Robinson-Martin Security Scholars Program, was launched in 2002 by the Prague Security Studies Institute (PSSI). This program was accredited by the Charles University in Prague and offers courses and field trips in security-related subjects. In 2005 PSSI agreed to sponsor, configure, host and help teach an undergraduate and Master's Degree program in security studies, organized by Charles University's Faculty of Social Sciences in Prague.
