Master of Arts [M.A] (International Humanitarian Action)
Field of Study:
$13,050 /Yr
NOHA stands for Network on Humanitarian Action, which is the organisation responsible for this joint European Master?s programme.
The programme was launched in 1993 because of a growing concern about the increase in disasters and conflicts in the world and the complex consequences for society. In order to address these questions, it was felt that a more professional approach was required, combining academic higher education and professional competences. The programme is administered by the Department of Theology, but is multidisciplinary.
The education is co-funded by the European Commission and is one of the best-established Master?s programmes in humanitarian action, linking ten core universities in Europe with many partner universities around the globe. The Master?s programme has twice been awarded Erasmus Mundus Programme status, thus facilitating student and scholar mobility within the network.
The Master Programme in International Humanitarian Action at Uppsala University offers a multidisciplinary education which seeks to teach the student core competences for a career in humanitarian action. The overall aim is to train students to develop the analytical and practical skills needed by professional humanitarian workers ? for example, an interdisciplinary understanding of emergency situations and a capacity to organise and plan humanitarian relief operations. In Uppsala, the Master?s is a two-year programme.
Career
This programme provides the student with a high-quality academic education and professional competences tailored to a career in the areas of international humanitarian action, emergency and disaster relief, and development.
A Master's degree in International Humanitarian Action could be a suitable qualification for work in non-governmental organisations and in large international organisations such as the UN, EU or OCHA (Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs).
Nationally, there are career possibilities in the public sector such as in the County Councils and Municipalities and the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB).
