Embedded in the world renowned Conflict Analysis Research Centre, leading experts will help students explore the dynamics of deep-seated conflict and learn how states, international organisations, NGOs, and individuals can work towards enduring peace.

It is assessed formally on the basis of one piece of work, a dissertation (or thesis), that reports students' original thought and research.
