    The Master's Degree in International Humanitarian Law, Human Rights and Operational Law is the only Official Master's Degree in Spain that trains students in Operational Law and its fusion with International Humanitarian Law and Human Rights for the legal regulation of armed conflicts.

    The regulation of armed conflicts is a compulsory subject for legal advisors who work in conflict areas, as it covers the wide range of humanitarian law of war and international conflict law.

    It is worth noting the need for knowledge of international humanitarian law in order to advise various organisations on the international crises that are occurring around the world, where the focus is on human beings.

    The programme's lecturers maintain academic cooperation relations with various international organisations such as the United Nations, the European Security Council, the Inter-American Defence Board and various institutions linked to the areas of global security and defence, strategic, military and security forces, which is why they are actively involved in the teaching they provide.

    The programme is taught in "classroom" and "distance" modes, so that students have the possibility of combining their work and personal functions with the study of the programme.
