Master of Arts in Conflict Resolution

The M.A. in Conflict Resolution prepares students to resolve conflict in a turbulent world. The world-class program includes a theoretically rigorous core curriculum, skills taught by top practitioners with a focus on negotiation, mediation and facilitation, and an experiential learning series. Core courses explore the nature of conflict and how peace is made, built and sustained. The flexible curriculum allows students to focus on integrating conflict resolution skills into a variety of sectors. Building on Georgetown's commitment to social justice, the program supports our students focus at local, national, and global levels. A core principle of our program is Utraque Unum, Latin for both into one, and Georgetown's motto. Utraque Unum represents our drive to reconcile, to use conflict as an opportunity to bring together diverse points of view and create greater strength through understanding.
