Postgraduate study programmes
PhD students who are supervised within CCS join the MPhil/PhD programmes of the Department of Social Policy.
The name of the MSc Management of Non-Governmental Organisations has been changed to MSc NGOs and Development to better reflect the broad scope of the course which focuses on the work of NGOs within development and transition contexts in the areas of advocacy, humanitarian relief, and service delivery. The programme examines the special roles of NGOs and the challenges they encounter, their relationships with other stakeholders (states, inter-governmental organisations, beneficiaries), the internal organisational challenges as well as the changing policy contexts in which NGOs operate.
The MSc is intended for people who are making, or who have the potential to make, a significant contribution to the non-governmental sector in the developing world as analysts, policy-makers, researchers or practitioners. Applicants will be expected to be well-qualified graduates with some experience of work within NGOs and/ or relevant government departments or donor agencies working with NGOs. Applications to the MSc from prospective students from developing and transition countries are particularly welcomed. |
