M.Phil. in Conflict Resolution and Reconciliation

The M.Phil. in Conflict Resolution and Reconciliation is a creative and innovative programme designed to suit the needs of specialists already working in the fields of conflict resolution and reconciliation, as well as those new to the study of conflict resolution and reconciliation.

As Trinity’s only specialist cross-border School, the Irish School of Ecumenics offers modules in Belfast and/or Dublin, as well as some options at week-long residential courses at the Corrymeela Community’s Centre for Reconciliation in Ballycastle on the north Antrim coast. These modules are taught by experts from our partner organisations, the Glencree Centre for Reconciliation and TIDES (Transformation, Interdependence, Diversity, Equity and Sustainability) Training and Consulting.

For all prospective non-EU students: Trinity College Dublin is reviewing arrangements for non-EU students due to begin studying at the Irish School of Ecumenics in Belfast from September 2012 onwards. Due to our position as a Republic of Ireland university operating in the UK and the effect of recent changes to the UK immigration system, it is likely that we will transfer to an ‘Overseas Institution’ operating within the UK (our Belfast School) and this will mean Non-EU students can apply for a UK visa to study in Belfast for half the length of their programme before transferring to Dublin for the second remainder of the programme. Alternatively, Non-EU students may prefer to be based entirely in Dublin like other Trinity students, and travel to Belfast to do the programme in short block intensives (Conflict Resolution specialisation). We hope to have the situation clarified by the end of March 2012 and will update all incoming and prospective students.
