[MA IR with asian studies concentration - GW, UCSD, or Sais Bologna]

HI,

 

I'm looking to start a grad program next fall in IR, but I would like to specialize in asian studies and conflict managemnet. Can anyone shed some light on their experiences with the asian studies departments at these schools? or the conlict management tracks?

I actually applied for GU's MA in Conflict resolution, which is a separate program than SFS (a much more narrow focus) although it shares some classes and the same career center. I actually heard back a couple of weeks ago for that. 

 

My worry is SAIS bologna will make any attempt to add in an asian studies component a bit difficult, as tempting as bologna is...

[MA in Conflict resolution - MA where?]

hi all,

 

I'm trying to build a career in international conflict resolution with asian regional focus, any advice for where to pursue a masters? I've applied and gotten in to a few very different prgrams, but if anyone might know what the best programs in that particular field are thought to be, that would be really helpful in making a decision.

 

Thanks!

I have been accepted into SAIS Bologna, GU's MA in Conflict Resolution, AU's SIS, UCSD IR/PS Program, and NYU's GSAS IR masters program and am having issues choosing which program to attend. I'm also waiting to hear back from Elliott. After graduation I intend to build a career in governmental or intergovernmental organizations focusing on conflict and refugee issues in the asian region. Any advice?

[NYU GSAS MA in Internationa Relations]

I jsut recieved the acceptance letter to NYU's GSAS Ma in IR program, but I'm having difficulty finding information on the program (reviews, etc) that is not provided by the school itself. Anyone know anything about the quality of the program and the employability of its graduates? From what I understand, it leans more towards theory than practical application.
