Study Conflict Resolution in a Low-Residency Setting

Overview
The Conflict Analysis and Engagement program allows participants to study the field of conflict resolution and to build knowledge and skills in this dynamic field.

With faculty guidance, students engage in dynamic graduate courses that bring depth to the student’s area of interest in the conflict resolution field. This flexibility enables students to leverage and integrate past experience and knowledge from their personal and professional lives through a Master of Arts degree.  The Conflict Analysis and Engagement program at Antioch University Midwest is a low-residency, hybrid model which enables students to complete coursework from any location.

Because of Antioch, I am more aware of where I draw meaning from in my life and I am much more aware of other people’s perspectives.  My experience at Antioch University Midwest definitely pushed me to grow.”

Many students enter the program after a decade or more in a specific field such as construction, elder care, or non profit development. In this master’s degree program, students maximize current knowledge or interest as they explore the conflict resolution field with a new lens of analysis and engagement.
