Today, we witness the rise of national and regional conflicts (so-called “new wars”), often linked to religious and ethnic diversity and enmity, usually triggered by unjust living conditions. In a globalized world, every regional conflict affects and is affected by the international community. At the same time we observe the devastating influence of violent conflicts on the individual as well as on the relations within families and communities (trauma).
This has created a growing interest in the political and public arena to explore and develop skills for peace making and peace keeping (locally, regionally, and internationally) as well as for conflict prevention and post-conflict care. In the field of Theology and Religious Studies, all of these insights are considered and critically reflected (in research, education, and praxis) from the perspective of different faith traditions. Religion is misused to incite violent conflicts and it is one of the strongest resources for conflict resolution and trauma healing – on the inter-personal level, the inter-groups level, as well as in reconciliation processes within whole societies.

toelatingseisen
toelatingsgesprek
Before the start of the academic year the student needs to have an intake with the coordinator of the specialization. The aim of this intake is to discuss possible deficiency in theological knowledge of the student.
vooropleiding
Students with a Bachelor's Degree in Theology or Religious Studies from a university abroad will only be admitted following an assessment of their degree by the admissions board. Students with Bachelor's degrees in other disciplines are also welcome to apply, provided that the degree obtained is from a research-oriented university.
BSc-before-MSc rule' on admission to this master in the academic year 2020-2021 Generally speaking, students must complete their Bachelor's or pre-Master's before starting on their Master's programme. This is known as the 'BSc-before-MSc rule'. Due to the corona crisis, however, some students have had to partially stop their studies, resulting in an unfortunate delay. Master's programmes at VU Amsterdam have examined how an exception to the rule can be made possible, so that students do not get stuck in the transition from Bachelor's to Master's because of the corona crisis. Students must have completed a minimum of 90% (162 EC) from a three-year university Bachelor's programme. The rest of the admission requirements will stay the same.
