Master in Cooperation and Development

The CDN is a network of post graduate education programs in cooperation and development whose aim is to train professionals on different issues about economics, cooperation and human development. The different programs involve international students coming from different academic and social backgrounds. VISION AND AIM Development is a multi-faced phenomenon. The CDN provides the participants with the opportunity to achieve the highest professional standards in interpreting and managing the complexities of the dynamics of the development processes. But how? THEORY AND PRACTICE The CDN training is focused on a multidisciplinary approach to development and combines academic disciplines such as economics, history and human studies. Thanks to a long-term partnership development professionals from NGOs and International Organizations offer a wide range of theoretical and practical experiences of project management. Field experience is an essential aspect in understanding development; a period of internship is thus considered a major component within the Program.
