The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) is now accepting applications for their next Citizens Academy, beginning August 15, 2018. The 12-week academy, the eighth offered in the Houston area, will introduce students to the many programs and services provided by DPS, and will engage them through interactive education during weekly meetings every Wednesday evening from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.

Students in the academy will learn about DPS' rich history as well as the origin and expertise of the Texas Rangers, the Texas Highway Patrol, the DPS Criminal Investigations Division and DPS' state-of-the-art crime lab. Students will interact in mock crime scene investigations with the crime lab personnel and learn about how troopers conduct crash scene investigations. The academy will also provide an opportunity to participate in the DPS Trooper Training Program, as well as to learn about DPS firearms and driving training.

The DPS leadership believes the safe educational environment provided by this type of academy is one of the best ways for our citizens to understand the many safety challenges Texans face every day. At the end of the 12-week academy, students will have a better understanding of all the services within DPS and how the department functions in order to serve and protect Texans on a daily basis.
