Program Overview

The Master of Arts in Intelligence and Security Studies (MAISS) prepares students and industry leaders to address intelligence and security challenges in an interconnected world. The graduate certificate in intelligence studies focuses on utilizing open-source tools of intelligence collection; illustrating the processes, roles, and functions of the five disciplines of intelligence collection; examining the roles of intelligence collection in order to achieve US national security objectives; demonstrating the evolution of US intelligence collection from inception to the cyber domain, and the program seeks to teach the motivations of actors in cyberspace. The certificate is being created for potential students that already have a master’s degree and/or are already in the field, do not want to pursue a graduate degree, but are interested in furthering their education concerning intelligence collection. Rather than getting a degree for the concentration, especially for those already in the industry, this certificate will help them enroll in MAISS courses and to enhance their career and expertise in this area by completing a graduate certificate in the four courses. This is an embedded and standalone certificate.
