The Center of Excellence for Explosives Detection, Mitigation and Response is a multi-university Department of Homeland Security Center of Excellence (CoE) with three primary objectives:

1. Conduct transformational research and technology development for effective detection, mitigation and response to the explosives related threats facing the nation.
2. Establish systemic connections to the DHS Center of Excellence University Network and beyond to the broader academic community to facilitate collaborative links to find and develop the best solutions.
3. The CoE is designed to reach out to citizens of all ages to enhance their awareness of pertinent science and engineering so that they will make better informed decisions and provide for the next generations of those protecting our populations. We are particularly interested in preparing the next generations of researchers
