Study with the CWWPP

General Information About Studying With the CWWPP

Note:  Read this section first!

In the context of the development of the Field Institute for Post-Conflict Studies, we have considerably revised the study program.

The Summer Program in Post-Conflict Studies will now take place from 16 June-29 August, 2008

Details of each of the courses is given below.

People who have taken the courses may stay longer and can make specific arrangements with us to do so (see the detailed Information and Application for CWWPP Study Programs).

We are very much open to visiting professorships and to cooperative research projects.  If you are interested in these, please contact us at institute@cwwpp.org.

Unfortunately, because of staff time and because of our desire for those studying with us to have a basic introduction to the region, we have eliminated the previous internship and volunteering programs.

We warmly welcome serious people who wish to learn from the area, from us and our colleagues, and who are willing to work to do so.

Please note that, except where specifically indicated in job advertisements or elsewhere, the CWWPP cannot pay any costs of transportation to and from this region, housing, food or any other costs, although some scholarships may be available with regard to course contributions (but only for these costs) for people from developing and/or post-conflict regions.

The CWWPP 2008 Summer Program in Post-Conflict Studies

Read this section carefully and completely before proceeding

The 2008 CWWPP Summer Program in Post-Conflict Studies is a program that includes a four-week course on post-conflict issues, with a focus on eastern Croatia combined with a six week project period and an optional course in the Croatian language.  There is a two week vacation period after the course.  The Program will take place from Monday, 16 June until Friday, 29 August, 2008.  The contribution for the Program is 2100 Euros/3100 US Dollars. Click here for further details and an application.

Masters and Doctoral Assistance involves assistance of the student in researching a thesis.  We strongly recommend that the student takes the Summer Program before embarking on such a program (and in most cases will require this) in order to become familiar with the region and its problems and with some of the methodological problems of working in this kind of a region.  Costs are 520Euros/715 US Dollars per month plus 150 Euros/205 US Dollars per month for housing.

Minimum age for all programs  is 22. There is no maximum age limit.
