The analysis of intelligence and the management of those who undertake that analysis are important and fundamental processes for both public and private sector organisations. Whether you’re looking to focus on developing a career in intelligence, or you already have some experience and wish to formalise this with an academic qualification, this three-year full-time course will develop your knowledge, understanding and capabilities ready for progression in a variety of sectors.

In the organisational context there are many influencers and other issues which will drive the requirement for intelligence about the issues and threats which may have adverse or positive effects and impacts. The organisation that values and manages intelligence carefully will be better prepared than that which does not look at potential issues and fails to develop information into a usable and valuable basis for action. The requirements for each organisation will be different based upon the operational, social and adversary context and will need to involve detailed analysis.

In organisations that take an intelligence-led approach - corporates, businesses, law enforcement, military and governments - it is argued that there is a higher level of awareness and by implication preparedness and resilience. Also, with the seemingly ever-increasing range of information and intelligence sources that organisations can draw upon, the importance of developed intelligence analysis capability becomes even more clear.

Course programme

This module map provides a list of the modules that make up your course.

Each module is worth a specified number of credits (typically either 15 or 30 credits for undergraduate courses). Compulsory (or ‘core’) modules cover key subject knowledge, while ‘option’ modules enable you to develop your own interests. For a full-time course you must take modules worth a total of 120 credits at each level of the course. The number of option modules you can take depends on the number of compulsory modules at each level. You can find more information about how your course is structured via the Academic Advice pages.

Our teaching is informed by research and employer requirements, and modules change periodically to reflect developments in the subject area. In addition, where we have insufficient numbers of students interested in an option module, this may not be offered. If an option module does not run, we will advise you as soon as possible and help you choose an alternative module.
