    There has never been more information at our fingertips, but this mass of spoken and written data poses new challenges.

    How do we establish the authenticity of a recording when AI-generated deepfakes are increasingly convincing? How do we find a few credible threats among millions of ordinary posts? Can we track whether a series of fraudulent communications came from a single criminal or a decentralised crime syndicate?

    The challenges faced by security, protection, and intelligence roles are evolving at an unprecedented pace. Specialists working in these fields might analyse voices from noisy surveillance recordings to identify a prime suspect, or assess emerging disinformation campaigns to establish their potential origins.
    This MSc offers a distinct opportunity to bring together analyses of both written and spoken language. With this grounding, you can take a deep dive into many of the most critical issues of our time, from spoofing and deception to anonymous threats and organised crime.
