Course Overview

The MSc Crime Intelligence and Data Analytics (with Advanced Practice) course helps you develop the high-quality, necessary skills to work in these sectors.

The work boundaries of the traditional police intelligence analyst and digital forensic investigator are becoming blurred – today’s analysts need to be cyber aware, understanding how communication records and web search histories can be extracted and analysed.

This course covers these areas and theories that provide a better sense of the causes of crime and the prevention measures that can be put in place to stabilise and reverse these trends. It provides you with the skills to work effectively with large datasets, allowing you to make more informed decisions about criminal investigations. Key features include writing code to clean up data quickly and packaging it. Hence, it’s suitable for analysing and visualising Twitter downloads, searching words and images, geolocation points or big data.

This two-year master’s degree with advanced practice enhances your qualification by adding to the one-year master’s programme a vocational or research-based internship. Vocational training is a great way to gain work experience and give your CV a competitive edge. A research internship allows you to develop your analytical, team-working, research and academic skills by working alongside a research team in an educational setting. We guarantee a research internship but cannot ensure vocational training. We will, however, provide you with practical support and advice on how to find and secure your vocational internship position should you prefer this type of internship.
