Program Description

Global security in the 21st century is complex. Rising powers, non-state actors, hybrid wars, cyber challenges, and resource scarcity all present challenges. But they also present an opportunity to create smart, effective policies that help shape and protect our world.

Prepare for a rewarding career in foreign affairs or national security with the MA in Global Security Studies program at Johns Hopkins University. Our comprehensive program rests on three pillars: military security, economic security, and energy and environmental security.

Courses cover theoretical and practical aspects of global security, always closely connected to today’s most pressing issues. Additional elective courses are available from relevant degree programs including Government, Public Management, Intelligence Analysis, Energy Policy and Climate, Environmental Sciences and Policy, and Communication.

Study on Your Terms

About 90% of our students work full time while enrolled in the program. We offer a flexible schedule with start dates in the fall, spring, or summer. You can earn your degree online, attend evening classes in Washington, D.C., or opt for a combination of online and onsite courses.
