专业介绍

About the programme

Cyberattacks on critical infrastructure. Humanitarianism dismantled. Hybrid warfare at Europe’s borders. AI-powered disinformation reshaping elections. Climate collapse. international conflict, war. 

The threats, risks, and crises facing governments and organisations today are faster, more complex, and more interconnected than ever before. The MSc in Security Risk Management trains you to understand them, anticipate them, and act – theoretically, methodologically, and empirically. 

You will graduate with both the analytical sharpness to cut through complexity and the practical tools to make organisations genuinely safer, whether in a government ministry, a global corporation, or an international institution.

What makes the programme at UCPH unique?

Most degrees in security and risk management give you expertise in either theory or practice. The MSc in Security Risk Management gives you both, combining political science, sociology, law, and crisis management to offer an interdisciplinary perspective on security. You learn from researchers shaping the field and practitioners facing real threats. The result is a degree that is intellectually rigorous and immediately applicable.

Why is this programme relevant?

In an era marked by geopolitical fracture, spreading war and conflict, climate change, digital vulnerabilities, and geopolitical tensions, security and risk expertise is no longer niche. It is a core organisational need. Graduates of the MSc in Security Risk Management are equipped to meet that need head-on: analysing threats, designing resilient systems, and advising decision-makers in environments where the stakes could not be higher.
