Master in Conflict Resolution

This new course develops analytic and applied skills for reflective practioners and anyone seeking to develop expertise in this area of work. It is taught in short-block intensives, and in partnership with professional organisations at the forefront of the field. Most modules are taught in 5-day blocks to be more easily accessible to students who need to combine study with work, travel and other commitments. Most teaching is at our cross-border School in Belfast, plus two residential modules at Glencree, Co. Wicklow, and one residential module at Ballycastle, Co. Antrim. Students are responsible for their own accommodation in Belfast but the accommodation for the three residential modules at Glencree and Ballycastle is included in the tuition fee.

Master in Reconciliation Studies

This course develops an inter-disciplinary research approach to the social, political, ethical and theological aspects of reconciliation. It is taught in weekly classes during teaching semesters at our cross-border School in Belfast. Most classes are taught on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so it is usually possible to combine study with work, travel and other commitments. Full-time international students should plan to reside in Belfast, but it is possible for part-time local students to travel weekly from anywhere in Northern Ireland, or from Dublin and other parts of Ireland. Students are responsible for their own accommodation in Belfast.
