Социальная Справедливость и Права Человека, Магистр

The MA program in social justice and human rights addresses urgent social issues related to human security, labour, migration, children, family, education, and the environment.

The coursework in this theoretically and methodologically rigorous program examines social issues in contexts defined by multiple intersecting forms of social identity and disadvantage, including gender, race, ethnicity, class, sexuality, and nationality.

The program requires an internship to be completed domestically or internationally. Students typically work alongside other advocates for social justice to help refugees, migrants, workers, and survivors of violence or human trafficking.

Students may select three-degree tracks: research, advocacy, or critical trauma studies and social work. The research track prepares students for positions as researchers, analysts, and advocates in governmental, intergovernmental, and nongovernmental agencies. The advocacy track prepares students to be leaders in nonprofit, social movement, governmental and intergovernmental organizations. The critical trauma studies and social work track prepare students to assist vulnerable people, especially survivors of extreme violence, poverty, war, sex trafficking, human trafficking, gender-based violence, and various marginalization forms.

Graduates are also prepared to enter doctoral programs.
