Terrorism, Mediation and Peace - Mixed-Model (Ph.D.)

In this specialization, learn the immediate and long-term implications of anti-terrorism legislation and policies. Study how terrorism policies are drafted and enforced, while you analyze the ethical issues related to human rights and the psychology of terrorism. Explore the effects of disaster, crisis, and trauma and the appropriate interventions for individuals and groups. Examine the roots of international and domestic terrorism, the catalysts and motivations for terrorists’ acts, and how media and technology may aid or block terrorists’ activities.

The Mixed-Model option is a more flexible program of study that includes online courses and Walden’s signature Knowledge Area Modules (KAMs). Study independently and work closely with a faculty mentor to apply your research to an area in which you are passionate.
