Peace Research and International Relations, Master
- University: Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen
- Place of study, location: Tübingen
- Degree: Master, Master of Arts
- Target degree: The MA programme Peace Research and International Policy aims to provide the necessary skills to deal with new challenges to peace from a peacemaking point of view. The focus of the Master?s programme is both the exploratory and the trial-based learning of peace studies contexts. On the one hand, the dynamics, processes and structures of violent conflicts are to be analysed, and this analysis extended by practice-relevant experiences. On the other hand, it is about getting to know the opportunities and possibilities of cooperation for coping with international and internal violent conflicts. Based on methodologically and theoretically sound basic research, concepts, institutions and strategies of violence prevention and peaceful conflict management are critically reviewed, designed and developed further. The course also provides insights into the ethical issues of international politics and teaches peace as the normative value of professional and especially academic work. Particularly noteworthy are the possibilities of practical learning in the form of excursions, such as in connection with security policy in Europe, to Vienna, Strasbourg and Brussels, the ?Peace Boat? with a stay aboard the floating university and the approach to conflict regions or simulation and excursion to the National Model United Nations in New York. In addition, numerous seminars are held by lecturers from the field, such as the Institute for Peace Education. The courses can be studied both in German and in English.
