Type of institution: University/Higher Education Institution
Level: Postgraduate
CRICOS: 00002J
The post-Cold War international system has witnessed the rise of multifaceted security challenges. Traditional great power rivalries have re-emerged as China and Russia contest the existing world order; while non-traditional, societal and economic security issues have added complexity to our understanding of security and stability. To face these challenges, governments and organisations increasingly need analysts with the knowledge and skills to understand complex geostrategic issues and engineer solutions.The Master of Security and Strategic Studies will prepare you to analyse contemporary security, defence and strategic challenges. You’ll learn about the dynamics behind major geopolitical and geostrategic issues, and about multidimensional non-traditional security challenges; and you’ll extend your knowledge of analytical methods to evaluate strategic choices, and the evolution of Australia’s interests and strategy.
