Description
The Master of Science in Genocide and Mass Atrocity Prevention (GMAP) is the first and only graduate degree of its kind. This professional degree prepares graduates to analyze risk factors, formulate strategies, and implement policies and practices to reduce the occurrence, severity, and potential for reoccurrence of genocides and other mass atrocities around the world. With a focus on the application of an atrocity prevention lens, the program educates students to recognize opportunities to engage in proactive, responsive, and redressive prevention measures. Through a University-wide interdisciplinary approach integrating classroom learning, applied research, engagement with practitioners and a funded intensive field placement, the program prepares graduates to be prevention actors at the micro (individual), meso (organizational) and macro (societal) levels. The program is University-wide and overseen by the Institute for Genocide and Mass Atrocity Prevention (I-GMAP) which reports to the provost.
