Introduction This course gives you a real in depth understanding of the character of international security globally with an energy sector dimension. It utlises some of Aberdeen's best known subjects and industries, drawing on the energy industry knowledge locally and globally to offer advanced learning in Stategic Studies and Energy Security. You look at the end of fossil fuels, adapation, prices, risks and reliability. Many lessons have been learned from the energy industry in terms of strategic issues which have given other industries valuable learning points and methods of working. The subject area can be complex without understanding the main difficulties of security and how international systems affect the way in which regions operate. It enhances understanding of the difficulties encountered when attempting to assess the prospects for stability and security in key, pivotal 'energy-rich' and 'energy-poor' regions of the international system.
