Graduate (Masters) Program in International Peace and Conflict Resolution at Beaver College, Philadelphia, PA.
The program offers candidates an opportunity to be trained in a broad range of fields, including contending approaches to international peace and conflict resolution, public international law, the techniques and practices of negotiations and mediation, the protection of human rights, the role of the media in conflict resolution, the international and national protection refugees, as well as international diplomacy and economics. The most outstanding features of the program are its second year overseas placement and its emphasis on an inter-disciplinary approach to conflict settlement and prevention in a volatile international environment. Candidates will have the additional benefit of being exposed to a multitude of new teaching technologies, including the Internet, video-conferencing, etc. Candidates will spend the second year abroad and both pursue a program of studies at a partner university and gain practical knowledge through field work.
Thus, the program is tailored to develop candidates' skills as mediators and negotiators and to let them gain first-hand knowledge of different cultures and their approaches to conflict and peace.
