Course summary
Understanding complex risks and the dangers they pose, is crucial to managing security and countering threats in a global world.
This programme focuses on key issues in international security – how we can identify and counter them. It explores critical issues, such as terrorism, hybrid warfare and organised crime, and examines how such global risks can be managed by international organisations, governments and companies.
