Thank you for your interest in the 2008 Beta Test Masters Degree program in Counterterrorism and National Security Studies. We hope this page answers your questions about the degree program and if it does, the enrollment link is located at the bottom of the page…

The International Institute for Counterterrorism Studies (IICTS) has developed a Masters degree program with all materials included on DVD. The program includes government studies, video programs and audio lectures all on counterterrorism and national security. We are offering this program to only 300 students, who in return for helping us review and evaluate the materials; get a complete Masters Degree in Counterterrorism and National Security Studies for only $750 tuition. When the Beta program is complete, the degree program will be increased to $8000 for new students.

IICTS will ask the Beta Test enrolled students for feedback during the course duration (your own pace) and will ask you to develop alternate questions for the material to be used in future courses and also critique the materials. The materials are meant to develop your skills in disseminating information, understanding government policies and how the world deals with terrorism at different levels, both politically and operationally. By assisting us in developing future materials for students, you in return learn the materials more thoroughly and disseminate them and use the information effectively in creating a finished product. Please do not request a curriculum outline as this does not exist... The students help us define the curriculum materials from what we provide.

Masters Degree Students have three options in how they earn their degree. These options are:

1) Develop your Thesis from the materials supplied on the DVD-ROM; or

2) Develop several courses out of the materials provided; or

3) Review and Audit the required amount of material assigned for the degree.

If you enroll today, your materials will be sent out via Priority US Mail immediately. It will include one DVD-ROM with all the materials you will require for the degree program, along with an answer CD-ROM to return to us with your work on it. There will be no text books involved in this program.
