Overview

The M.A. Program in Conflict Resolution from Georgetown University, which is offered in conjunction with many other departments and schools at Georgetown, is designed to be intensive and small in size. Core and elective courses are taught in the departments of Government, Psychology, Theology, Philosophy, Sociology and Communication, Culture & Technology, as well as at the Law Center, Business School, School of Foreign Service and the McCourt School of Public Policy.

The Program

The broad themes of the program trace the three basic stages of conflict processes: the origins of disputes; mediation and negotiation; and post-conflict peace building. Students are schooled in a variety of perspectives ranging from intergroup to community to global.

The program prepares students for further academic study, or for careers in the rapidly growing market for specialists in the field of conflict resolution.
