The second cohort of master’s graduates from programmes armed with the knowledge provided by the WARN project has completed their studies. In December 2024, students of master’s educational and professional programs successfully defended their theses. Each year, teachers of project-related courses improve and update their teaching materials to reflect the rapidly changing landscape of security threats and to incorporate new methods of countering hybrid influences and attacks. These developments often become the focus of research in students’ final certification works.

Here are a few thesis topics:

• Socio-Cultural Aspects of Hybrid Threats.
• Features of the work of community cultural institutions under conditions of military aggression (based on the example of the Tulchyn city territorial community).
• Socio-cultural practices as a tool for forming national identity: A case study of art galleries in Kyiv https://elib.nakkkim.edu.ua/handle/123456789/5792.
• Activities of cultural institutions in Ukraine under martial law (based on the example of the Odesa National Art Museum).
• Activities of cultural service centers in Ukraine under the legal regime of martial law (based on the example of the Yampil City Center for Culture and Leisure in Vinnytsia region).
• Research of Intelligent Media Content Analysis Methods for Identifying Key Manipulations.
• Master’s Thesis Topics for the 2024/2025 Academic Year in the Specialty “Public Governance and Administration,” Educational and Professional Program “Public Policy and Governance in the Context of Hybrid Threats” (KhKNU).

Increasingly, methods of countering hybrid threats are becoming the subject of research in dissertations for the Doctor of Philosophy degree.

Here is one dissertation prepared for preliminary defense in January 2025:
TRANSFORMATION OF THE ACTIVITIES OF PUBLIC LIBRARIES IN PODILLIA UNDER CONDITIONS OF HYBRID THREATS  (Domain 029 “Information, Library, and Archival Studies,” Field 02 – Culture and Arts).
