PhD Enhancing Maritime Security

Coventry University

Maritime threats like piracy and fisheries crimes significantly undermine the global economy and impact on the sustainable development of coastal states. Research conducted at CTPSR, on the relationship between contemporary maritime crimes and the resilience of vulnerable coastal communities has had significant impact both nationally and internationally, in shaping policy and regulation as well as education and training.CTPSR’s Maritime Security team sits within the Security, Vulnerability and Resilience Research Group. The specialised team have led a portfolio of research in the emergent and evolving field of maritime security studies, a new discipline of increasing importance which identifies significant implications for policy, regulatory frameworks, and practice relating to human security, the blue economy and sustainable development.Please use the official Coventry University website as your main source of information as our courses are subject to change throughout the year.
