Course Overview

Intelligence and security-related issues have never been more prevalent. With terrorist attacks occurring more frequently throughout Europe, the US, and the Middle East, governments are working harder than ever to keep people safe. Sound interesting? Our master's degree in intelligence and security studies will give you the skills to make a difference in this field.

With a range of modules focused on how Britain has historically responded to threats to its internal security, this MA Intelligence and Security Studies degree will place these issues in their historical and cultural context and introduce you to the conceptual tools needed for severe intellectual inquiry.

This is the longest-running non-governmental postgraduate course in the UK concerning contemporary intelligence and security issues.

We partner with Grey Dynamics, a private intelligence firm offering apolitical analysis on security, geopolitics, defense, and espionage. MAISS students will be eligible for participation in Grey Dynamics' internship program.

You will:

  • Learn from a team of academics who are recognized, published experts in their fields

  • Study current, real-world events of international significance and importance

  • Gain the knowledge and transferrable skills desired by employers in the intelligence and security sector

General Eligibility

Part Time Work Details

20 Hours of Work permit weekly for international students.
