Organisation profile

The Conflict Management, Resolution & Negotiation Graduate Program is an interdisciplinary graduate program offering the MA and Ph.D degrees.
This cutting edge multidisciplinary academic program equips students from many backgrounds to offer invaluable contributions for improving their social organizations, government services, and society in general towards achieving win-win solutions so necessary in contemporary Israel.

The understanding that conflicts are a multi-faceted social phenomenon that require different approaches and orientations  as well as a varied skill box for dealing with multi-dimensional conflicts in a changing reality, is reflected in the  courses that our program offers. In addition to courses  on theory – how conflicts arise and how they should be managed and resolved – students take part in our practical workshops and conduct a field project where they observe and implement techniques for managing and resolving conflicts.

An important feature of the program is the academic mediation center which operates on campus. Mediation students offer mediation services to the campus community and to cases that are assigned to the center by the Labor Court – under the guidance of expert mediators.
