What is an MSc Prevention, Arbitration & Dispute Resolution?

This year of the MSc cycle allows students to prepare for a career in an NGO, a company, a consulting firm or a public institution working in France and abroad on national and international crisis issues. In a world where the areas of tension are numerous and multifaceted, conflict prevention and resolution techniques are increasingly implemented in order to avoid the material destruction and loss of human life caused by armed conflicts as well as the destabilization of entire countries over long periods of time.

The second year of the MSc program allows students to specialize in a particular field of activity. An internship can be completed for this program.
