Kursbeschreibung
Is one of your career goals to work towards achieving peace and security in the world? If the answer to this vital question is yes, then this program is for you! During your studies in the M.A. in Peace and Security Studies, you will study peace and security from a social science, humanities, scientific, ethical, and legal point of view. You’ll learn and practice research methods that will open the doors towards working in major international organizations or academic institutions.
Note that many lectures are conducted entirely in German, often involving complex terminology, and a strong proficiency in the language is expected.
