Master of Criminology and Master of Intelligence

The Master of Criminology will equip you with the critical insight and applied expertise needed to respond ethically and effectively to contemporary crime and justice challenges. Its interdisciplinary curriculum will encourage you to question assumptions about crime, and provide you with the tools to evaluate justice through the lenses of power, inequality and environmental security. You’ll engage with cutting-edge issues, such as the impact of technology and AI on policing, and consider how Indigenous knowledge and ecological thinking can inform justice responses. Drawing on advanced criminology theory – and from fields such as sociology, psychology, psychiatry and social anthropology – you’ll graduate ready to influence reform, contribute to justice and lead future innovation in criminology. The Master of Intelligence will equip you with both the knowledge and applied skills required to succeed in government, national security, policy and corporate roles. You’ll study the evolution of the intelligence enterprise in Australia and internationally, while engaging directly with real-world concerns through simulations, supervised projects and internships. With specialist units in open-source intelligence, leadership and cyber intelligence, and electives in security, counterterrorism and criminology, you’ll have the flexibility to tailor your degree while building the advanced capabilities employers are seeking.
