Key Facts

The Master of Anticipatory Intelligence (MAI) program is a nationally pathbreaking professional degree program that will uniquely prepare students from science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) and social science disciplines to anticipate and successfully navigate complex emergent security challenges in professional applications across a wide range of fields and industries. USU's Center for Anticipatory Intelligence has led the pioneering effort in the US to establish the academic field of Anticipatory Intelligence: a multidomain approach to anticipating threats and opportunities emerging from the world’s increasingly complex security environment, oriented around the goal of reducing uncertainty and designing resilience across future scenarios. This interdisciplinary, cross-college program integrates core coursework in Anticipatory Intelligence with applied emphasis tracks in International Security, Cyber & Security Analytics, Biosecurity, and Geographic Information Sciences to equip graduates with a potent combination of analytic and applied skills, cross-trained competencies, and an actionable professional education fit for the security challenges of the 21st century. The MAI constitutes the nation’s first graduate degree in the field, responding to a significant upswell in labor market demand across the US public and private sectors for security-focused graduates and professionals from a wide range of disciplinary backgrounds who possess advanced training in both hard and soft skills of security thinking, structured toolkits for system-level threat assessment and resilience design, and sophistication in interdisciplinary analysis and synthesis regarding complex and emergent security issues affecting their professional fields.
