Presentación

The Master in International Security Management is designed to address the need to manage a changing and complex international reality, defined by new security threats which require a renewed approach in order to tackle them. Studying our Master in International Security will allow you to learn how to use the right tools to address security challenges, including military ones, but going beyond to include the design of policies that can address climate change, energy sustainability, food security, cybersecurity and artificial intelligence.

The Master will offer you the opportunity to learn about the management of these challenges through two specialisation tracks, after a first block of common training. The tracks are Global Risk Management and Cyber-challenges and Narrative Information Management. With the Global Risks Management track, in addition to specialising in the management of energy and environmental, health and food challenges, you will learn how to analyse country risk from an economic perspective, and the new hybrid conflicts that define the international panorama. Through the Cyber-challenges and Narrative Information Management track, you will understand the current mechanisms of (dis)information, its resources, and common methods, and the growing role of the cyber dimension. Thus, you will develop skills required to analyse and develop information campaigns, managing their impact at a social or organisational level, taking into account psychological and technical factors.

During the Master, you will carry out a tailored internship in one of our partner public institutions or private companies, organisations linked to international security management, thus allowing you to apply the knowledge gained on the programme and to develop a professional career in either the private or public sector.

Requisitos

Our cohort is made of graduates from various fields of knowledge who can accredit a Spanish bachelor´s degree or equivalent that gives them access to postgraduate studies at Spanish universities. Given that the teaching is entirely in English, it will be necessary to prove a level of English equivalent to or higher than a B2 level (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages), accredited by TOEFL, IELTS or a similar certification. Alternatively, the language level can be proved through documentation showing that the candidate has studied at either undergraduate or postgraduate level in a country whose official language is English. For other exceptions, please get in touch to check the eligibility.

The level of English will also be checked during the admission interview.

Extensive knowledge of international current affairs is required.

The admission decision is based on a number of criteria. The candidates will be required to submit a personal statement, and they will have a personal interview, in which knowledge of international current affairs will also be tested.
