I am proud to announce that Dr. Marian Mosser has joined the Capella public safety faculty team. Marian retired from the U.S. Army in 1997 at the rank of lieutenant colonel and during her career in the military she coordinated with FBI, CIA, NSA officials and foreign intelligence and security officials to investigate and deter terrorism. She developed and executed an anti-terrorism and emergency response plans to protect U.S. facilities, buildings, and personnel before and after the first New York World Trade Center bombing; managed a 30 person anti-terrorism cell that implemented a security protection plan and emergency planning and response procedures to safeguard facilities, equipment and personnel in three separate countries during Desert Shield Desert Storm; served as the U.S. Army’s senior antiterrorism officer managing the Antiterrorism Cell in the Intelligence and Operations Center in the Pentagon, which over saw emergency preparedness throughout the U.S. Army with regard to acts of terror; and oversaw the operations of various U.S. intelligence systems into the Bosnia area of operation.

In 2007, Dr. Mosser traveled to Israel to attend the Executive Counter-Terrorism Course at the Institute Counter Terrorism, Herzliya, Israel. While in Israel, she meet with senior foreign officials and others to discuss counter terrorism methods to prevent suicide bombings.

Dr. Mosser has served in numerous crisis operations assignments and assisted in investigations such as PAN AM 103 and the first World Trade Center bombing. Most note worthy was her providing critical intelligence to security agencies resulting in the capture of five terrorist’s and her participated in counterintelligence investigations to detect and identify individuals and groups conducting espionage and terrorism against the U.S., which resulted in the location and capture of a spy.

Dr. Mosser has lectured on global perspectives of terrorism and emergency preparedness at; FEMA Higher Ed Conference in 2008, University of North Carolina-Wilmington, Cape Fear Community College, and numerous local radio and television and continues to provide antiterrorism, security, and emergency preparedness and respond training for law enforcement officers and first responder’s worldwide.
