MA i hållbar fred i den samtida världen (online)

The online Master of Arts program in Sustainable Peace in the Contemporary World engages competent professionals and researchers to resolve pressing and complex global problems that concern humanity. Every course in the program shares a commitment to ethics, fundamental human values, gender sensitivity, and multiculturalism.

The content of the online M.A. moves from a study of the origins of conflict at the personal, local, internal, and international levels to the promotion and practice of peace. The program discusses the responsibilities and capacities of all social sectors, including key political and economic institutions, as well as civil society and individuals, and their potential impact on the environmental and social aspects of peace and conflict. Skills for the maintenance of peace are emphasized throughout the program, including analyzing and understanding conflict from multiple perspectives.

This is an interdisciplinary online program, drawing on scholarship and methodologies from across academia. The complexities of today's world, and the developments of the last thirty years in understanding peace and conflict, demand an approach that crosses boundaries while seeking to create new progressions in the main field of study.

All courses are well-integrated within the program, bringing together modern theories, and concepts, in-depth case studies, best practices from around the world, sound methodologies, and the valuable contributions of course-takers.

Deadline: Applications are accepted on a rolling basis. Students can begin the M.A. program at the start of any new course, upon approval.
