The MA in Humanitarianism and Conflict Response focuses on response to crises originating from both conflict zones and natural disasters.
Bringing together the study of health, the social sciences and the humanities, the course provides an inclusive approach that mirrors the reality of aid operations and informs the reflexive processes of both analytical and applied disciplines.
You will benefit from being able to draw on an exceptionally wide breadth of disciplinary traditions and research expertise.
We normally expect students to have a Second class honours degree or its overseas equivalent.

Students at the Humanitarian and Conflict Response Institute come from a broad range of backgrounds, with varying levels of experience.
Many who already have work experience will be able to harness the knowledge gained from their course to progress within their field of expertise, reaching senior roles in government and non-governmental organisations.
Others will be able to use the course as a starting point to progress into careers within NGOs, HR consultancies, financial institutions, academic institutions and more.
