Introduction

  • Are you interested in advancing your knowledge of contemporary conflict studies, and developing the skills and qualities needed for professional conflict and peace practice?
  • Do you want to spend a year studying in a stimulating academic environment, working with staff at the forefront of their field and with students from all over the world?
  • Are you looking for a challenging learning experience that will involve solving real-world problems, addressing complex ethical dilemmas, undertaking independent research projects, and practising advanced skills for conflict engagement?
  • Would you like to build a portfolio of work demonstrating your achievement of a set of professional competencies relevant to employment in peace, conflict and development?

The MA in Peacebuilding and Conflict Resolution is offered by the internationally recognised Department of Peace Studies and International Development, drawing on over 50 years of experience as a leading centre of peace research and education.

The programme will develop your understanding of the causes and dynamics of conflict and violence in a range of settings. It will support you in making informed judgements about when and how to engage constructively with conflict. You will weigh up the strengths and limitations of different approaches to intervention and consider critical questions surrounding efforts to build peace in different contexts.

Through a diverse programme of study, including a significant applied, practical element, you will develop knowledge and competencies essential to effective, ethically aware and reflective practice within conflict engagement and peacebuilding practice - locally, nationally or internationally.

As part of our 50th anniversary celebrations, we have been gathering memories and reflections from our large and diverse community of alumni. These will give you a good sense of the many things students take away from our programmes and the diversity of pathways they follow after their studies. Take a look at our memories and reflections.
