Welcome to the Master of Advanced Studies in Security Policy and Crisis Management (MAS ETH SPCM)
Management boards are responsible to public or private corporation and stakeholders to develop and implement strategies and tactics to deal with crises and emergencies, to ensure business continuity and, above all, to guarantee the survival of nation state or firm. But threats and risks (whether real or potential, natural or man-made) seem increasingly extensive, costly, interdependent, complex and dangerous.
