The Master in International Security Management is designed to help you understand today’s complex global landscape, defined by new security threats that require innovative and multifaceted approaches. By enrolling in this Master’s, you will learn how to use the right tools to address security challenges, including military issues, as well as the design of policies to tackle climate change, energy sustainability, food security, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence.

Through this Master’s, which is taught entirely in English, you will acquire the necessary knowledge to manage these challenges by choosing one of two specialisation tracks, after completing the core courses: Global Risk Management and Cyber-challenges and Narrative Information Management.

In the Global Risk Management track, you will focus on understanding and managing issues related to energy, the environment, health, and food security, while also learning how to assess country-specific risks from an economic perspective and address the hybrid conflicts shaping the current international landscape.

In the Cyber-challenges and Narrative Information Management track, you will learn how to analyse disinformation, its methods and resources, as well as the growing role of the cyber domain. You will develop the skills required to design and manage information campaigns, understanding their psychological and technical impact on both society and organisations.

Your choice of specialisation will be guided by expert-led talks, collaborations with international universities, and practical sessions with professionals in the field. The programme combines academic learning with practical experiences, including assessments such as professional reports, prospective analyses, and policy memos, ensuring you are well-prepared for the real-world challenges of international security management.

In addition, you will have the opportunity to carry out internships in a variety of institutions, such as international organisations, security consultancies, public affairs entities, NGOs, think tanks, and private sector companies focused on various security threats.
