MA/MS in Crisis and Security Management: Violence, Interventions, and Policing

This master's track studies forms of interpersonal violence, including violence against women, violence linked to crime, and clashes between citizens and police during public disorder, examining their causes, consequences, and social contexts. It covers how interventions and prevention strategies function, along with the part played by police and other security bodies in maintaining order domestically and the legitimate use of force. Across four specialised courses, students build academic knowledge and research skills in analysing theories, collecting and evaluating data, and assessing policy critically, working toward the ability to design strategies for reducing violence and improving prevention programmes. The track points toward work in public or private security bodies, educational institutions, victim organisations, and municipal government, and covers the societal, political, and legal dimensions of violence and interventions.
