MA in Terrorism, International Crime and Global Security
<\/b><\/h3><\/div>

The ONLY academic Programme in Greece in the field of Terrorism and Crime<\/b><\/p>\n

This MA Terrorism, International Crime and Global Security is a programme that builds upon Coventry University\u2019s expertise in the fields of Politics, International Relations, international crime and global security and City Unity College expertise in Social Networking Analysis and Economics.<\/p>\n

This programme is born out or a collaborative European effort and focuses on both local and global aspects of Terrorism, International Crime and Global Security. It has been designed to take account of ways in which the nature of the study of International Relations has changed in the twenty-first century. This particularly applies to the post 9\/11 emphasis on the \u2018war on terror\u2019 and the emergence of transnational organised crime as a key threat to the stability of society, alongside a growing number of factors that threaten global security (such as pandemics, economic inequality, poverty, environmental pollution, diseases, natural disasters, state collapse and the re-emergence of racial and religious tensions).<\/p>\n

The programme examines these key issues in a thematic manner through the three mandatory courses: International Organised Crime, International Terrorism and Threats to Global Security. This thematic approach is complemented by other courses addressing individual case studies focussing on human trafficking, governance in the developing world and the nature of war. A distinctive feature of this programme is the inclusion of a course on Social Network Analysis (SNA), that provides an overview of major network theories and metrics with emphasis on practical SNA applications across different areas: for example, criminal intelligence analysis, criminal\/terrorism investigations, national security, military intelligence, business intelligence, security risk management, and organisational behaviour and management.<\/p>\n

Rationale<\/b>
\nSince the end of the Cold War there has been a widening in the number of threats affecting individual, group, state and international security. The programme seeks to provide students with an informed understanding of terrorism, organised crime and global security from an integrated perspective by combining traditional notions of military security with contemporary non-military threats of terrorism and trans-national organised crime. The programme provides students with an up-to-date set of courses that examine these threats. The programme has been designed to take account of the way in which the nature of the study of International Security has changed in the twenty-first century. This particularly applies to the post 9\/11 emphasis on the \u2018war on terror\u2019, the emergence of international organised crime as a key threat to the stability of society and the growth in the number of factors that threaten global security, including economic inequality, poverty, environmental pollution, diseases, natural disasters, state collapse and the re-emergence of racial and religious tensions. The programme examines these key issues in a thematic manner. This thematic approach is complemented by individual case studies within the relevant courses.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
