Summary
Our MSc in Conflict, Security and Development programme reflects the international debates about the nature of peace and conflict in the developing world and the approaches of the international community to support and create peaceful governance in areas of conflict.
Conflict, security and development is an area of increasing importance, and this programme will provide a direct link between the academic and practical policy approaches to analysing and recovery from conflicts. Contemporary debates will cover issues as broad as accountability and transparency, corruption, conflict, political settlement, human rights, participation, access to justice, democratisation and state building. The emphasis will be on developing countries and will be of interest to those already working in development or recent graduates with some work/volunteer experience seeking careers in development or government, or in NGOs related to governance, state-building and peace.
The International Development Department is well-regarded internationally by sponsors, donor agencies, governments and NGOs. Study with us to benefit from:

Expertise in key issues and skills valued by employers

A vibrant, welcoming community

Individual overseas fieldwork or study visit included in fees (on-campus programmes)
