Master's in International Security Studies
A Comparative Analysis of Current Theories and Policy Paradigms of National and International Security
This post-graduate program was realized by combining the educational offers of University of the Republic of San Marino (UNIRSM) and University of Modena and Reggio Emilia (UNIMORE), pairing them with that of some of the most prominent centers of excellence worldwide.
The Master’s Degree is fully accredited in Italy and in the EU, and its completion is achieved by earning 60 credits.
Vision & Mission
The curriculum is designed to provide a state-of-the-art primer on the cutting-edge field of international security studies. Engaged by a world-class faculty and supported by the best-available international sources (top academic and professional publications, think-tank papers and contributions, etc.), through live class discussion and interaction, students will be expected to grasp the fundamental concepts underlying covered topics, and, more importantly, master the basic tools for a rigorous and committed approach to the current global challenges’ complexities in an operative perspective aimed to possible responses and solutions.
Instructors will spear head students’ effort to carefully consider the far-reaching implications of the current discourse on international law and organizations’—including established rules of the armed conflicts—and the traditional sovereign state’s role and nature, together with the crucial tension (and quest for a sustainable balance) between civil liberties and national/international security imperatives, by also touching upon the specific issues related to technology, “techno companies” and the “big data” revolution.
Covered subjects and topics will articulate a very innovative educational trajectory, bound to the crucial crossroad between geopolitics, social and political sciences, international law and relations, constitutional traditions, macroeconomics, global cooperation/development, and their philosophical underpinnings.
