Conflict Resolution training encourages effectiveness and efficiency
in problem solving in a variety of settings. Lawyers may enhance
their credentials by adding mediation to their practice; human
resource personnel may offer new forms of corporate and bureaucratic
solution techniques; diplomats will add to their repertoire of
negotiation talents in cross-cultural environments; community
organizers, educators, and clergy will expand their strategies
and techniques of creative methods for conflict management.
Students who complete the degree will have a comprehensive, compassionate
understanding of social problems. They will be able to foresee,
analyze, and implement trends in conflict management, and will
be able to apply technical skills to creatively construct problem-solving
options. Finally, they will develop an increased social awareness
of conflict resolution complexities in culturally diverse groups.
The MA in Conflict Resolution prepares students for positions
of leadership in management, negotiation, and mediation at all
levels--from community to corporate settings, and from local government
to international organizations. The educational training is designed
for anyone wishing to enhance skills for managing conflict in
their current profession; and it offers a wide base of skills
for jobs in which the management of conflict is an asset.
University of Denver Conflict Resolution Institute graduates
work in human resource departments and victim offender reconciliation
programs; others are pursuing careers as family mediators, conflict
management trainers, paralegal specialists, and school counselors.
The first graduate from the program jointed the United State Foreign
Service; a recent graduate secured a position with the Department
of Homeland Security.
