Curriculum designed with the most up-to-date tools in neuropsychological evaluation
The Master's Degree in Political Communication and Crisis and Emergency Management teaches how to transform communication into an appropriate and indispensable instrument with which organisations of all kinds can fulfil their objectives and serve society. In addition, the programme covers the areas of crisis and reputation management and the resolution of emergencies in the communication environment.
Communication permeates all levels of politics, interacting with the social sphere from the institutions, but also from private enterprise, which must regulate its dealings with power. The institutional situation in Spain, and in the rest of the surrounding countries, is undergoing substantial changes that imply a correct use of communication, transformed in recent years by the new paradigm of digitalisation.
This official degree, which is endorsed by the Association of Political Communication (ACOP), aims to provide students with comprehensive, advanced, specialised and transversal training to tackle political communication with an international and global outlook at a delicate time, prone to the proliferation of disinformation and fake news. Likewise, to train them to handle the digital tools that have burst into the communication processes. Such as bots, deepfake, in short, artificial intelligence, which makes very controlled strategies necessary both in electoral processes and in situations of reputation crisis management or emergencies for private companies and non-governmental organisations. Strategies that are developed in both the public and private spheres.
"From the Master's Degree in Political Communication and Crisis and Emergency Management, we believe that we can contribute our knowledge to increase the effectiveness of political communication. We believe that the quality of the information that reaches citizens can be improved. And we strive to provide students with the necessary tools to achieve this goal. We combine the professional experience of professors, who are or have been immersed in positions of responsibility at the highest level, and PhDs with extensive experience in the field of research".
