SecSE - http://www.sintef.org/secse
SSIRI - http://paris.utdallas.edu/ssiri11/

being taught mostly to postgraduates who are majoring in IA and
I think you're right - to take our local university, NTNU; they have a course on software security, but it's an elective offered to postgraduates in the final year before they start their MSc thesis, which probably means that only those students who already have a special interest in security will choose it.
