Institute

When businesses, institutions, nonprofit organizations, or governmental agencies need to reduce uncertainty, one place they can turn to is Mercyhurst.

Many already have.

The Mercyhurst College Institute for Intelligence Studies has a research and analysis arm, the Center for Intelligence Research Analysis and Training (CIRAT). This center has provided research and analysis products to clients since 1995. Over the years, it has done research and analysis for agencies such as Department of Defense, the European Union Parliament, Central Intelligence Agency, Procter & Gamble, Coca Cola, Erie Regional Chamber of Commerce, Eriez Magnetics, and many more.

While CIRAT’s products give its clients an edge in dealing with whatever problem or uncertainty they face, the products are an excellent opportunity for Mercyhurst intelligence students to take part in real-life intelligence projects, whether they are for national security, law enforcement or business needs. Students encounter many of the same kinds of problems and find the kinds of solutions their professional counterparts. They do this with the guidance of the MCIIS faculty.

CIRAT is a win-win situation for clients and students.
