Highlights
What is Conflict Resolution?--Conflict resolution is focused on moving conflict presentation and escalation to solution. The approach emphasizes processes of behavior used to assist in this transformation to help commit disputing parties to mutually acceptable positions and to build and enlarge relationships of trust among them.
Why study Conflict Resolution at DU?--DU offers a truly interdisciplinary degree combining
Communications, Law, Business, Social Work, International Studies, Professional Psychology, Theology, and an Alternative Dispute Resolution certificate program at University College.
Our Conflict Resolution program has deep academic roots, drawing
on well established courses spread over various departments within
the university alongside newly developed course subjects.
Our Conflict Resolution faculty
members are enthusiastic supporters. The core of 14 tenured professors
are engaged in teaching and/or research in the field and provide
students course options, diversity of views, and quality instruction.
Our Conflict Resolution M.A. degree offers an attractive tuition
rate package. Students take about half of their courses at the
normal, traditional University of Denver credit hour fee, and
the remaining classes from University College, where fees are
cut by more than 50%.
