Emory Master's in Development Practice Details
One of the most pressing challenges of our time is achieving sustainable development in the face of global poverty, political and ethnic conflict, a degrading natural resource base, and irreversible climate change. The Master's in Development Practice (MDP) program at Emory University is designed to meet that challenge by combining hands-on learning and field experience with rigorous training in a broad range of academic disciplines. In addition to the academic resources of a top-ranked research university, Emory's MDP program capitalizes on its partnership with established international development and research organizations. These partners' global reach and programmatic approaches expose students to the multiple ways development practitioners operate in the real world and to the different institutional contexts in which they will serve after completion of their degrees.Recruiters list a master's in international development / development practice as the most in-demand degree for jobs in the sector.
