International training with expert security and defence institutions
The Master's Degree in Security and Defence is an official programme with a high level of professional insertion in Public Administrations and Institutions, large and medium-sized companies, NGOs and international organisations related to security and defence.
Nebrija University is a pioneer in the area of Security, with the launch of the first University Degree in Security in Spain and organising events such as the CICA (International Congress on Risks and Threats to critical infrastructures).
In university and higher education, there has been a notable increase in activities related to security and defence. These concepts and their development involve all citizens, whether or not they belong to the public sector, who are interested in the challenges and threats to security in a globalised but very close world. If we consider that almost all of the nation's future leaders, both in the business world and in the Public Administrations, will come from the University, we believe that they must have a clear and rigorous training in these issues. For this reason, Nebrija University wishes to strengthen its links with society by offering quality training in the field of security and defence.
Defence issues occupy a predominant place in the concerns of our society. The increase in international crises, the need to resolve such crises on occasions by means of a multinational force under the umbrella of NATO or the United Nations, the prestige or lack of prestige of its actions and the repercussions for the country of origin, the increase in crime and the consequent need to reinforce security, are commonplace in specialised forums and attract the attention of a very diverse public.
Security has also become a major issue in recent years. Confronted with a profusion of potential dangers, ranging from terrorism to computer viruses, fraud and organised crime, the world is seen by many as an increasingly dangerous place. As a result, the focus on security has increased and the demand for security-related goods and services has risen sharply, generating a wide and varied range of economic activities in both government and business. This is why the specialisation we offer is not only of scientific interest, but also represents a not inconsiderable potential demand.
"As teachers, we have a firm commitment to excellence with the highest level of knowledge transfer, which means that we seek, above all, to develop our students' knowledge, encouraging their capacity for judgement and analysis in a global world. The aim: to develop free minds capable of acting on any challenge they face".

Verónica Briseida Batalla Centenera
Máster Universitario en Seguridad y Defensa
"Gracias al MUSD he podido obtener una visión más amplia y concreta del mundo de la seguridad y la defensa teniendo en cuenta la importancia de la diplomacia y las relaciones internacionales. Destacaría que, a pesar de ser un máster a distancia, lo mejor es la cercanía con los docentes estando, muchos de ellos, muy implicados en modificar sus temarios en base a las inquietudes de los alumnos ofreciéndonos una visión más real de cómo enfrentarnos a los problemas que pudiéramos encontrarnos de cara a nuestra salida al mundo laboral."
Jorge Negri Roldán
Máster Universitario en Seguridad y Defensa
"El MUSD ha cumplido todas mis expectativas. Sinceramente, no tenía muy claro cómo iba a desarrollarse al tener que realizarlo en la modalidad online, pero puedo afirmar que me ha aportado un montón de conocimientos sobre la Seguridad y Defensa. Me gustaría agradecer a mi tutora Andreea Marica su trabajo constante y su ayuda inestimable durante todo el curso."
Javier de la Uz
Máster Universitario en Seguridad y Defensa
"El Máster en Seguridad y Defensa de la Universidad Nebrija me ha permitido comprender de manera más profunda diferentes aspectos relacionados no sólo con la seguridad, sino también con la geopolítica y las relaciones internacionales y, además, me ha motivado para continuar mis estudios en este campo con un programa de doctorado. Sin duda lo recomiendo, no sólo por su contenido, sino también por su profesorado, que combina una sólida formación académica con una dilatada experiencia profesional."
Erica Miranda Ortiz
Máster Universitario en Seguridad y Defensa
"Hace un año se me ofreció la oportunidad de realizar un Master en Seguridad y Defensa con la Universidad de Nebrija en modalidad presencial, impartida en conjunto con el curso de Estado Mayor de la Escuela Superior de las Fuerzas Armadas de España. Hoy día estoy muy satisfecha y orgullosa de haber tomado esa decisión y de haber conocido a buenos compañeros y excelentes profesores. El conocimiento que adquirí me permitirá orientarme para un futuro y poder desempeñarme como profesional."
Ángela María Gaitán Navarro
Máster Universitario en Seguridad y Defensa
"Hice el Máster en Seguridad y defensa, modalidad distancia y realmente estoy muy contenta con la decisión de haber elegido la Universidad Antonio Nebrija para ampliar mis conocimientos que me han permitido crecer profesionalmente, fue una experiencia satisfactoria y lo recomiendo, actualmente me desempeño como coordinadora Académica en la Facultad de Relaciones Internacionales de la Escuela Militar de Cadetes en Colombia."
