Admission requirements

The course is not an 'entry level' program and students will generally have a vocational background or qualifications in the intelligence field or research-based disciplines aligned to intelligence. However, students wanting to pursue a career in the intelligence profession who hold an undergraduate degree or other relevant qualifications from other disciplines are also encouraged to apply.

The course will provide specialised education in the area of intelligence, building on existing skills and increasing the professionalism of officers engaged in this field of intelligence.

CSU places great emphasis on services to its students. It is a leader in the provision of online services and, in particular, the use of the internet in the support of teaching, administration and communications with students.

The online environment is so integrated into all aspects of student life and the learning experience at CSU that the University now assumes that all on campus and distance education students at CSU will have ongoing access to an internet connected computer capable of communicating with CSU online systems.

Students enrolled in Information Technology subjects (i.e. with an ITC subject code) may be required to have additional hardware and/or software that is deemed essential for the completion of the learning activities in that subject.
