Threat and risk assessment have become an integral part of counterterrorism strategies. This process currently relies heavily on the judgment of professionals, who play a vital role in a potentially high-stakes environment. However, thus far, little research focuses on the professionals themselves. This study provides insight into the experiences and opinions of professional threat and risk assessors, particularly regarding how they conduct terrorism risk assessments, their expectations for training, and the experience and characteristics of those that conduct them. An online survey solicited quantitative and qualitative responses from a sample of 41 professional threat assessors. The findings highlight that the training and experience required differ greatly across different disciplines involved, and the importance of considering the context in which threat and risk assessment takes place. These findings also highlight cognitive abilities and personality characteristics that may be desirable for risk assessors in this context, and provide avenues for further research to examine the role of these factors in risk assessment.

The MSc in Strategic Accounting and Finance (online) is a unique postgraduate programme, developed by the UCL School of Management, to provide you with the necessary skills to evaluate accounting and financial data, and use insights to drive business performance.
Whether an organisation’s focus is on new opportunities, maintaining its current standing, or simply seeking to survive, they require management teams to make strategic decisions, drawing upon a range of criteria, both financial and non-financial.
Managers who understand and are able to apply financial ideas are in high demand as employers seek their ability to synthesise financial and analytical data, to strategically advise on a range of scenarios. Whether in marketing, HR, technology, logistics or other areas – managers are expected to incorporate financial data and information into the decision-making processes. Through this online MSc Strategic Accounting and Finance programme, you will be able to apply financial expertise to a range of decision-making scenarios, blending theories and concepts with practical applications.
Whether you are an experienced professional or a new or aspiring manager looking to take the next step in your career, you will develop a broad range of financial skills in the areas of accounting, finance, and their interplay with management, and cultivate a portfolio of new insights and abilities as part of your own professional self-development, to support your career ambitions.
Beyond this, you will also learn to lead with purpose beyond financial objectives by executing strategy, managing risks and opportunities, and creating inclusive cultures.
If you’re seeking to take the next step on your chosen career ladder, you will leave this programme well-versed with the language of business through a strategic and financial lense, able to make an immediate impact wherever you choose to go.
The development of the programme .
The programme draws on the expertise of leading educators, researchers and practitioners at the UCL School of Management and has been designed in conjunction with industry experts and employers to understand the skills they seek in future leaders of finance and accounting.
The faculty have extensive experience building and delivering engaging online programmes to global cohorts, with professors winning awards for their innovative approaches to online accounting education worldwide.
Top employers seek emotionally intelligent leaders, who have experience with financial management, corporate governance, and strategic operations, and can make difficult, but financially necessary decisions. The MSc in Strategic Accounting and Finance (online) equips you with the skills necessary to digest financial and accounting information and make serious contributions to organisational strategy.
Not only will you gain the technical know-how to evaluate organisational risks, but you will also dive into the science behind better decision-making – this will include aspects of behavioural psychology which drive people’s decisions, their biases, and their preferences to risk and reward.
The MSc in Strategic Accounting and Finance programme strategically incorporates both qualitative and quantitative modules, equipping you with a broad range of accounting and finance skills that will help you lead, or strongly contribute to, decision-making processes in any organisation.
The areas you can expect to cover on the programme include, but aren’t limited to:
The programme culminates in a Strategic Financial Project where your learnings on financial strategies and business research will be applied to a project of your own choosing. The project may be work-related, or an academic study. The preparation of this project is supported by online meetings with a mentor and is intended to provide you with a tangible piece of work which you can take away at the end of the programme.
Our Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) on Moodle gives you access to a range of engaging learning content, from study materials to revision guides, and forums to connect with your tutors and fellow students, allowing you to engage in self-reflective and collaborative experiences. You will also have access to the UCL online library which features access to a variety of journals, databases and other resources.
The asynchronous materials for each module cover a 10-week period within each term and will consist of conducive online teaching and learning mediums, including: videos, readings, problem-based learning challenges, case studies, quizzes, peer forum discussions, presentations and team-based activities, supported by live online weekly seminars. This blend of learning mediums ensures that your learning experience is highly interactive.
You will work individually and in groups ahead of and during online seminar activities, and sometimes in summative assessment to foster a collaborative working style, learn from your peers and help build lasting connections within your cohort.
You will be given guidance on how to achieve effective group interactions, and tutors will facilitate these interactions as appropriate. Having launched a successful online MBA over 5 years ago, the School's faculty are experts in delviering online peogrammes and fostering a collegial and collaborative community.
The programme’s online delivery makes it globally accessible for you to study at a top 10 global university ( QS 2025 ) from wherever you are in the world. It offers a full-time (12-month duration) and part-time (24-month duration) study option.
The content is delivered each week through asynchronous (pre-recorded) videos totaling up to 90 minutes (covering a different topic on the given module), selected readings from textbooks and/or articles, reinforcement and development activities, and a live 90-minute online seminar in small groups.
This programme is specifically designed to be delivered online, giving you the flexibility to enhance your career prospects from the comfort of your home or office. The flexibility of the programme means there is no need to put your career on hold, and you can put your learnings into practice immediately.
Collaboration and relationship-building are central features of the programme's online delivery structure. The small seminar class sizes and interactive features ensure you can engage in rich discussion and build lasting connections with other members of the UCL School of Management community.
Each term we will organise a series of optional non-credit bearing online webinar events focusing on areas of topical interest in the accounting and finance arena with speakers from the faculty, industry leaders, and the School’s community.
The programme team will arrange optional non-credit bearing Immersion Weekend events throughout the year. Their location will depend on the geographical concentration of the student cohort in your year of study.
These events will involve learning and development activities, as well as guest talks from academics, alumni, and industry experts. It is also an opportunity for you to network with your classmates in person, and further enhance the relationships you’ve developed with your global, online community of future leaders.
The locations will be determined and announced once the cohort has enrolled. Whilst those opting to attend in person will be responsible for their own travel and accommodation costs, it is likely that many will reside in the geographical location. If you do choose to travel, the Programme Team will advertise dates well in advance.
For those unable to travel but wishing to participate in these optional events, online provision and recordings will be made where possible to ensure that all on the programme can be involved in and benefit from these events.
