Through seven courses and six modules, students build upon their knowledge and skills in international security, policy analysis, negotiation and conflict management, monitoring and evaluation, while developing a functional and/or regional specialty.
This accelerated program allows for flexible pacing and can be completed full-time or part-time with both synchronous and asynchronous lessons.
