Description:
Today, thousands of research and intelligence analysts work throughout the
United States and abroad in government agencies and private enterprises. The
work of these intelligence analysts, whether relating to national security,
criminal investigative activities, business intelligence, or terrorism,
involves the preparation of assessments based on the collection,
correlation, and analysis of information. Building on the nationally
renowned undergraduate Research Intelligence Analyst Program (RIAP), the
Applied Intelligence graduate program provides students with the educational
foundation necessary to succeed as intelligence analysts and leaders of
analytical teams at federal and state agencies or within the law enforcement
and business communities.

Description:
The master of science degree program in forensic and biological anthropology
represents the first program in the country focused primarily on providing
students with a comprehensive basic training regiment in the combined fields
of forensic and biological anthropology. This will be accomplished by a
rigorous curriculum that includes a strong grounding in biological/
bioarchaeological anthropology, but with a significant focus on all of the
major components of the discipline of forensic anthropology, including
forensic osteology, forensic archaeology, forensic taphonomy, and skeletal
trauma. Most graduates of the program will be encouraged to continue their
education in a doctoral program within the disciplines of forensic
anthropology, biological anthropology, criminal justice, or forensic
sciences. They will possess extensive academic, field and laboratory skills
in both forensic anthropology and physical anthropology that will allow them
to compete academically with other graduate students in any of the top
biological or forensic anthropological doctoral programs.
Degree(s):
M.S. in Forensic and Biological Anthropology
