Master of Science and Technology Intelligence

The requirements of science and technology intelligence begin with a sophisticated understanding of the technological and engineering base. Only in that context can the intelligence question be framed and taught. This requires a specifically-educated faculty: those who have technical degrees and backgrounds in developing and analyzing technologies; those with experience in technology acquisition, deployment, and development; and those with specific technical understanding. The student base for graduate education for a degree in the School of Science and Technology Intelligence likewise needs to have a working knowledge of the science and technology underpinnings that enter into the intelligence realm. As such, the student body tends to have significantly different characteristics from those involved in the advanced policy, political, and military-strategic intelligence of the University’s current elective program.

The S&TI School complements the College of Strategic Intelligence capabilities by providing select science and technology-focused students with better opportunities for effective science-based research, focused education, and interagency outreach within a science-based educational paradigm.
