CAR698 Field-Based Research

[6 cr.]

A practicum provides an opportunity for students to apply the knowledge acquired during their Master degree in a real-life case or with an organization working on a specific conflict. Students are expected to work with a public or private institution as reflective practitioners, where they can help in addressing a conflict at hand. Institutions can include: schools, nongovernmental organizations, businesses, governmental institutions, religious institutions, local governments or conflict resolution organizations. Students will spend at least 300 hours at the chosen institution, after which a significant project report should be developed and presented to the Project supervisory committee.
