ICJ 765 Intelligence in National Security and Policing

This course will address both the theory and application of state intelligence services in both National Security and Law Enforcement. It will explain the roles and functions of intelligence services within the United States and then examine the challenges and opportunities for the unique function of intelligence in illuminating and intervening in issues related to transnational organized crime. The course will apply lessons learned from intelligence practice by developing a finished intelligence product and a collection requirement that identifies guidance for collection elements. The course will also examine the application of advancements made in Artificial Intelligence and those potential impacts on the business of intelligence as well as the ethical challenges associated with balancing civil liberties and the need for governments to maintain secrets.
