MA candidates will find in this program a balance between solid intellectual preparation in the social sciences and hands-on professional training with international experts in conflict management and civil society development.
MA candidates will demonstrate the capacity to take courses in both English and French, and to conduct negotiations and debates in both languages. They will take part in the broader international community created by this bridge built between the AUP and ICP campus.
MA recipients will acquire the necessary skills in cultural translation and conflict negotiation required to succeed in two different educational systems with distinct traditions and evaluative and teaching methods.
MA recipients will manifest intellectual autonomy; participate in contemporary culture; and they will demonstrate imagination and openness to new experiences, as well as the flexibility to think across disciplines and transfer skills between areas of expertise.
MA recipients will demonstrate both the willingness and the expertise to contribute fulsomely to civil society and intellectual life via participation in the extensive opportunities for debate, conference attendance, and cultural events on both campuses.
MA recipients will be autonomous producers of knowledge, informed decision-makers and skilled facilitators of conflict resolution
