View Academic Calendar
 

During this course, students will study and analyze Counterintelligence, focusing on both U.S. and foreign counterintelligence, including the evolution of counterintelligence, perspectives on counterintelligence operations since World War II, principles of covert action and deception, and assessments of successes and failures of counterintelligence. You will be required to study a range of books and articles on this topic and will develop a comprehensive knowledge of counterintelligence, and how intelligence agencies in the United States use both offensive and defensive counterintelligence to guard and protect U.S. national security interests from adversaries. In addition, you will study how counterintelligence is collected and analyzed, and how social and technological changes affect counterintelligence.
