Institution University of Exeter
Department Computer Science
Web https://www.exeter.ac.uk
Study type Research

Summary

The Security, Conflict and Human Rights programme is an interdisciplinary pathway, which recognises that traditional approaches to security studies must now be complemented with new perspectives of issues such as human (in)security more widely, including domestic insecurity and violence, in order to develop better strategies for resolving conflicts and securing social justice.

It will train researchers who are equipped with the interdisciplinary skills to impact the research, policy and practice needed to avoid and mitigate security risks.

For students who have not undertaken comprehensive research training at Masters level, there is a possibility of taking the MRes in Security, Conflict and Human Rights before embarking on your research degree.

Phd students at the SSI have access to:

  • A professional mentor from our group of prestigious honorary appointments and Advisory Board, in addition to a supervisor.

  • Training in research methods

  • Opportunities to give papers at major conferences

  • Assistance in the publication of their work

  • A lively seminar series with past speakers including leading academics from around the world and senior practitioners such as the Director General of MI5.

  • Teaching opportunities
