The MA in Peace, Conflict and Democracy is an interdisciplinary program designed for students who want to explore key global challenges related to peacebuilding, conflict, and democratic transformation. Led by award-winning academic staff with expertise across different regions of the world, the program brings together perspectives from political science, sociology, journalism, and anthropology, allowing students to engage with diverse theoretical and analytical approaches. The program lasts 18 months (90 ECTS) and is structured over three semesters. During the first two semesters, students develop strong theoretical, methodological, and practical skills through coursework. In the final semester, they complete an independent research project (dissertation) under the supervision of an experienced faculty member, enabling them to apply their interdisciplinary training to a topic of their choice. |
