'This specialisation has given me comprehensive and in-depth knowledge about many contemporary conflicts'
One thing that appeals to me about the field of conflict studies is that it is an interdisciplinary field. Students are engaged in many different fields of studies ranging from geography to economics, and from history to political science. For me personally, it has broadened my perspective in many different ways. I believe it is important that there are people who see the bigger picture rather than just look at their respective field of study alone.
