Program Description

The Diplomacy major prepares students to work on some of the most consequential issues of the present. The field of Diplomacy is wide-ranging and interdisciplinary. Wherever competing interests and perspectives collide, the craft of diplomacy is critical. This major combines the study of the structural causes of conflict with the practice of real-world negotiation and consensus-building. It emphasizes technical, cultural, and communicational competencies alike. The program builds on key research strengths from across the University of Utah. It has four focus areas: 1) Tribal Sovereignty and Cultural Heritage; 2) Conflict, Displacement, and Humanitarian Affairs; 3) Health, Climate, and Sustainability; and 4) Science, Technology, and Society.
