Master of Intelligence and Master of Laws
ProviderMacquarie UniversityCourse overview
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 Master of Laws will position you to lead in complex, internationally focused legal environments – whether your background is in law, business or another field. You’ll examine key areas, such as the law of the sea; human rights; and international, environmental and financial integrity law, equipping you with the grounding to work confidently across diverse areas. Alongside this, you’ll sharpen your practical expertise through mooting, mock trials and legal drafting exercises that test your advocacy, problem-solving and decision-making in real-world contexts. Guided by world-renowned academics and drawing on the research strengths of leading centres, you’ll graduate ready to take on influential roles in law, policy or business worldwide.
