Job Possibilities After Receiving an M.A. in Peace and Conflict Studies

The question of what qualifications you will acquire during your studies and how marketable you will be afterwards is very important. It is also important to remember, however, that the M.A. in Peace and Conflict Studies is not like a degree at a technical school that prepares you for a specific job. Rather, it gives you the skills necessary to scientifically analyze conflicts in their specific political, social and cultural contexts. You will be equipped to conduct objective, verifiable analyses of conflict situations using scientific methods and theories. Your qualifications for a specific job will depend on how you specialize and acquire practical experience during the program. It is in this way that you will find yourself well-qualified for a variety of career options.
