The requirements of science and technology intelligence begin with a sophisticated understanding of the technological and engineering base. Only in that context can the intelligence question be framed and taught. This requires a specifically-educated faculty: those who have technical degrees and backgrounds in developing and analyzing technologies; those with experience in technology acquisition, deployment, and development; and those with specific technical understanding. The student base for graduate education for a degree in the School of Science and Technology Intelligence likewise needs to have a working knowledge of the science and technology underpinnings that enter into the intelligence realm. As such, the student body tends to have significantly different characteristics from those involved in the advanced policy, political, and military-strategic intelligence of the University’s current elective program.

The S&TI School complements the College of Strategic Intelligence capabilities by providing select science and technology-focused students with better opportunities for effective science-based research, focused education, and interagency outreach within a science-based educational paradigm.

The National Intelligence University is the Intelligence Community’s sole accredited, federal degree-granting institution. The main campus is located in Bethesda, MD, and it also has Academic Centers located around the world. NIU faculty are subject matter experts from around the intelligence community who bring a wealth of knowledge and practical experience and academic qualifications to the classroom.

The NIU is a unique and technologically advanced university that focuses on intelligence and is the only institution of higher education in the nation that allows its students to study and complete research in the Top Secret/Sensitive Compartmentalized Information (TS/SCI) arena.
