The department has been grateful for the continued support we have received from Thomas Harriot College of Arts and Sciences (THCAS) and ECU in the form of faculty positions. In spite of recent hiring restrictions and freezes, we have been allowed to hire 3 new faculty members in the past 2 years.
Dr. Hanna Kassab (PhD, University of Miami) taught for the department in the fields of security studies and international relations from 2018-2021 in a fixed-term position. He has been well-liked by students and the other faculty and has a strong research record. He started a new tenure-track position in the department in spring 2022.
