Centre for Intelligence and International Security Studies
The Ken Robertson Intelligence Studies Prize
Dr Ken Robertson was formerly the director of Studies at the University of Reading’s Graduate School of European and International Studies, and was the inspiration behind the formation of both the Study Group on Intelligence (1982) and the Security and Intelligence Studies Group (1993) – a specialist part of the Political Studies Association. These have established themselves as the leading UK bodies for the academic study of intelligence and security issues. The CIISS sponsors in Dr Robertson’s name an annual prize for the best undergraduate student of intelligence.
