Master of Intelligence and Master of International Relations

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. The industry-focused Master of International Relations examines how international debates inform policy decisions, institutional responses and cross-border dynamics. The degree integrates political and IR theory with applied perspectives on technology, security, migration, international political economy and environmental politics, enabling you to engage with the full spectrum of contemporary global issues. Deep links with government, NGOs, internationally oriented banks, think tanks and global organisations offer sustained exposure to professional practice and strong employment opportunities, while on-campus and online study options add valuable flexibility.
