UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -- There's no shortage of information in our connected, computerized world. But more information does not necessarily lead to better intelligence and smarter decisions. Penn State's Red Cell Analytics Lab trains the next generation of analysts to turn data and information into intelligence through real-world training scenarios and cutting-edge technology.
The lab, part of the College of Information Sciences and Technology, gives students hands-on experience in intelligence operations ranging from deciphering the next movements of an insurgent group to responding effectively to a natural disaster.
