Open to graduate students in any discipline or department, the Graduate Certificate in Genocide and Mass Atrocity Prevention (GMAP) introduces students to the current range of practices designed to be prevention actors before, during and after mass atrocities, regardless of what academic discipline they are studying or what career path they choose. The certificate consists of four courses (13-16 credits, depending on course selection), in each of which students must earn a grade of B or better. The courses include one required course (4 credits) and three additional courses (3-4 credits each), one selected from each of three areas in consultation with one of the IGMAP co-directors. New courses are added to each of the categories every semester. This course of study informs practice through the application of the latest scholarship in areas such as the quantitative analysis of at-risk communities; how factors such as gender, climate change, political transitions and population flows contribute to risks for genocide and mass atrocities; and the role of governments, civil society actors and international bodies in effective prevention.
