In an era where digital platforms increasingly shape opinions, behaviour, and decision-making, understanding the psychological dimensions of cyberspace has become critically important. Cyberpsychology is an emerging and dynamic discipline that examines how human behaviour, cognition, and emotions interact with digital technologies. For students at Air University stepping into this new and evolving discipline, a workshop has been designed by to ignite curiosity, build confidence, and highlight the powerful career and research opportunities that lie ahead.
The workshop introduces Cyberpsychology as a multidisciplinary domain that bridges psychology, technology, security, and policy. A dedicated segment of the workshop focuses on cognitive warfare and the psychology of digital influence, helping students understand how psychological principles are used in shaping narratives, influencing public opinion, and conducting information operations in the digital domain.The workshop also includes an applied group-based exercise that places students in the role of expert consultants responding to real-world cyber challenges. The brainstorming exercise will enable students to explore how digital platforms influence perception, decision-making, and behaviour, and how these insights are increasingly critical in areas such as cybersecurity, information warfare, social media governance, and national security.
The workshop aims to reassure students of the strong academic, professional, and research scope of Cyberpsychology, positioning it as a vital field for the future digital society.

In this context, budget-making often appears reactive—focused on stabilisation and compliance with short-term macroeconomic targets—rather than transformative, aimed at broad-based productivity, institutional reform, and sustainable growth.

Nuclear Capability: Balancing Global Security and Energy Needs

Recent global developments—including geopolitical tensions, energy crises, and shifting power dynamics—have intensified discussions around nuclear capability. After the Russia-Ukraine conflict and the US-Israel-Iran war, nations are increasingly evaluating nuclear technology not only as a strategic defense mechanism but also as a reliable and large-scale energy source. These developments have brought nuclear capability back to the forefront of international debate.
The dual-use nature of nuclear capability—serving both military and civilian purposes—makes it a critical area of analysis. The ongoing war on Iran has introduced significant uncertainty into the future of Iran’s nuclear trajectory, particularly regarding
