The accelerated Master of Arts degree in International Development (ID) emphasizes the connection between critical thinking and effective action. It is designed for scholars of international development, as well as for present and future practitioners of grassroots and community-based development.
The challenge for the 21st-century is to promote just and equitable development and sustain environmental resources through critical thought and reflection, planning, and action. The IDCE Department and the ID Program stress approaches that foster alliances and partnerships between local institutions and broader stakeholders such as external development agencies, universities, and state and non-governmental organizations.
This master’s program helps students conceptualize innovative approaches to development problems by building an understanding of the complex causes, influences and implications of poverty, inequality, social injustice, and conflict. Rooted in the belief that effective approaches merge many disciplines, the ID MA employs a trans-disciplinary focus, with faculty from anthropology, development studies, economics, environmental sciences, women and gender studies, education, geography, history, government, and management.
