Online Master Programs in Social Sciences Political Science Mediation and Conflict Resolution

A master's is a degree in an advanced field of study. To obtain a master’s degree, a student must first have earned a bachelor’s degree, then complete one to two years of post-graduate study.
What is a Master in Mediation? Students in the field of mediation (also known as conflict resolution) may take base courses and electives in psychology, anthropology, political science and law, but there can be even more options, depending on the degree program. The skills learned in a mediation program can apply in many professional settings, from legal disputes to public policy. Therefore, the student’s individual interests and career goals may guide the selection of courses to support his or her major.
Students of mediation can learn useful skills such as analytical skills and organization. They will also gain a better understanding of human conflicts as well as efficient ways to settle them in both personal and professional life.
The cost of obtaining a Master in Mediation depends on the school you attend. The time it takes to earn this degree is generally between one and two years, but you will need to find this out for each program.
Mediation majors may have the ability to pursue careers spanning many different fields. One common path is to seek employment in the legal field as an arbitrator, mediator or conciliator. A graduate could choose to narrow down his or her concentration even further by specializing in a certain type of legal mediation, such as family law, intellectual property or foreclosures, to name only a few. Another option is to seek a career with large-scale corporations, organizations or government. Careers may include mediation in politics, intercultural conflict or even international relations. Again, these are only a few ideas. A graduate with a Master in Mediation may have access to positions with an array of companies and organizations or may choose to form an independent practice.
