This course gives students grounding in the academic
field of intelligence studies, including both the intelligence community and
the uses of intelligence. It will first cover the historical development of the
modern intelligence community. Then it will review major issues and types of
intelligence with historical case studies. Finally, contemporary debates in
intelligence reform and the Global War on Terrorism (GWOT) will be examined in
detail.

The course is a graduate level introduction to U.S.
intelligence, its practice, effectiveness, and rationale. It explores the
relationship between intelligence and U.S. national security, both during and
after the Cold War. The course will address such issues as intelligence
analysis, organization and oversight, as well as the concerns and perspectives
of producers and consumers.
