If you are thinking about a career in intelligence, international security, or global research, this is a speaker you do not want to miss.
On Monday, August 11 at 5:30 PM ET, Dr. John Blaxland from the Australian National University will join us live on Zoom for:
“Global Security Challenges: A View From Down Under”
Dr. Blaxland is a former military intelligence officer, a published expert on Indo-Pacific security, and someone who’s worked with both Australian and U.S. agencies—including a stint at the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency. He has led intelligence operations, taught security strategy, and advised defense leaders on both sides of the Pacific.
At ANU, he helps students understand how countries like Australia view global threats—and how that differs from the U.S.
Here’s what you’ll get from his talk:
🌐 A real-world look at global security challenges through an allied lens
🧭 Insight on how to think critically outside the U.S. perspective
🎓 Info on research and study opportunities at ANU for American students
This is not just for GEOINT majors. If you’re curious about foreign policy, national security, climate risk, or international careers—Dr. Blaxland brings all of that together in one hour.
