Terrorism Research Center
The Terrorism Research Center in Fulbright College (TRC) was created in 2003 to facilitate research on terrorism, extremist violence, and the effectiveness of intervention strategies. The TRC plays an integral role in ongoing research to better understand the spatial and temporal patterns of terrorist activities.
The Center plays host to the American Terrorism Study (ATS), the nation's longest running research project on terrorism in the United States. The project provides a comprehensive record of persons indicted in federal courts as a result of FBI "terrorism enterprise" investigations. Current research projects including TITAS (Terrorism in Time and Space) build upon the ATS refining and providing additional insights into the behavior of terrorist groups.
