Peacebuilding Fellows Information Session

Wednesday, October 1, 2014 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM EDT
Johnson Center, C, Third Floor

The Peacebuilding Fellows Program is a unique academic program for selected students interested in hands-on experience and applying classroom knowledge in the field. The semester-long academic program is based at Mason's Arlington campus and incorporates a significant internship experience.

The theme for the Spring 2015 cohort is “Put Theory into Practice” and will focus on both domestic and international communities struggling to live peacefully together. The small cohort of students will allow for more discussion and the opportunity to delve deeper into the issues.

The internship provides students the chance to immediately apply what they are learning and offers greater insight into future careers in areas relating to conflict analysis and resolution. Students will also be exposed to practitioners and experts in the field through the Speaker Series and receive assistance with their internship placement, along with career development support.
