01.14 Escola de Prevenció i Seguretat Integral

The Escola de Prevenció i Seguretat Integral (EPSI) of the UAB was established in the late 1990s with the aim of providing specialised university education in risk management and security. Integrated within the Fundació UAB Formació, it became a pioneering institution in Catalonia in offering higher education programmes in prevention, public and private security, emergency management, and civil protection.

With the introduction of the Bachelor's Degree in Prevention and Integral Security, offered both on campus and online, the School consolidated an interdisciplinary educational model that combines technical, legal, and organisational knowledge. Over the years, it has expanded its academic offer through master's and postgraduate programmes and has become a leading institution in the training of security and risk management professionals throughout Spain.
