The International MA in Child Development was established to train and prepare professionals to lead and advance initiatives in developing countries to improve the lives of children at risk.
With a focus on prevention and intervention, this unique program equips professionals with the knowledge and skills that are necessary to influence the well-being of children and their families in their home countries.
Students acquire the scientific and professional skills to transform knowledge from basic human development research to various applied topics. Topics include: childcare, nutrition, infant and young child morbidity and mortality, academic motivation in schools, orphanages and children raised in institutions, foster care, adoption, political violence and child soldiers, and effective parenting.
Scholarships will be offered to students from developing countries to cover tuition and living expenses. The program is taught in English over one academic year from October until July.
