National security law is often inaccessible and can be particularly hard to follow when divorced from the context of historical tradition, governmental structures, and operational reality in which it functions. This course will examine the law governing national security investigations and related litigation and will provide an in-depth examination of national security from the U.S. Government's perspective. Through class lectures, case studies, and hands-on application, students will learn how Federal intelligence and law enforcement agencies work together (and sometimes not) and their interplay with Foreign intelligence and law enforcement agencies to investigate and prosecute national security crimes, starting with the collection of evidence and proceeding through trial and sentencing. The course will highlight the investigative tools and laws used by intelligence and law enforcement agencies to investigate national security concerns and the varying challenges faced in prosecuting such cases. The class will incorporate guest speakers and experts from government organizations and other stakeholders in the national security field.
