| Landegg International University | Report Error | | Geographical Location: Switzerland | | Degrees Offered: Master of Arts in Conflict Resolution | | Description: 'Conflict resolution is a field closely related to the mission of Landegg International University, which is to equip students with the knowledge and skills necessary to contribute to the emergence of a peaceful and united world civilization.

Four specializations are offered: Interpersonal Conflict Resolution; Conflict Resolution and Peace Education; International Conflict Resolution; and Institutional Conflict Resolution.' | | http://www.landegg.edu/programs | Date Added: 10/12/2003 |
