2nd cycle of Bologna – Applications now open (+ info portuguese PDF)

Universidade Autónoma de Lisboa has been offering the Master Degree in Peace and War Studies in the New International Relations since 2003-2004. The course acts as a meeting point between strategic reflection and peace promotion.

The course’s target audience includes diplomats, international officers, journalists, international relations experts, including young graduates, and members of the military and security forces. It aims to confer students skills on strategic issues (in a rapidly changing international context), including non-military threats and new forms of violence. The course also examines peace promotion matters (preventive diplomacy, crisis management, conflict mediation, and social reconstruction processes).

The structure of the Master follows a sequence of six courses (theoretical and methodological, legal, economic, strategic, and current affairs perspectives), followed by three seminars (focusing on specific sectoral issues) supervised by Portuguese and foreign experts.

Dissertation topics are connected to OBSERVARE’s research projects. OBSERVARE is UAL’s research unit in International Relations.

Classes start on 24 September 2012

Timetable: 18h30- 22h00

Twice a week: Mondays and Tuesdays.
