Overview

The Strategy and Security program offered by Macquarie University considers that great power rivalries have re-emerged as China and Russia contest the existing world order, while non-traditional risks such as climate change-induced disasters, cyberattacks, biosecurity threats, and foreign interference add further layers of complexity. In this environment, the need for intelligence-based decision-makers to innovatively and holistically strategise and guide governments, business and non-government organisations has never been greater.
