NOTICE OF PROGRAM MORATORIUM: Graduate Certificates and the MA/MS in Conflict Resolution are currently on moratorium. We are no longer accepting applications for these programs.
Conflict is an everyday reality in our organizations, communities, and around the world. Learn how to transform conflict into positive change with Portland State's graduate certificates and master's degree in conflict resolution.
Conflict Resolution offers three graduate credentials that are "stackable": the Graduate Certificate in Conflict Resolution, the Graduate Certificate in Applied Conflict Resolution, and the full master's degree. The certificate programs will admit 12-20 students per year. The full master's degree is highly selective and will admit 4-6 students per year.
Interested individuals may take courses as post-bac or non-degree-seeking students and, if admitted to the program, count up to eight credits toward degree or credential completion.
