Bachelor of Arts in Applied Diplomacy - Diplomacy and the Arts

DePaul University

The Diplomacy and the Arts concentration provides a foundation for those interested in putting art and an understanding of aesthetics into the service of community formation, conflict resolution and peacebuilding. Likely vocations could include work in museums, galleries or as a studio artist, among others. Students selecting this concentration will place the study and practice of diplomacy into conversation with the disciplines of literary studies, studio art, the history of art and architecture, peace studies, religion, and writing, rhetoric and discourse. DePaul's program in Applied Diplomacy addresses these realities through an innovative program designed to train a new generation of diplomats. At both the undergraduate and graduate level the curriculum is multidisciplinary in expertise, deeply rooted in an ethic of collaboration and is designed to serve the needs of bridge builders across multiple boundaries of difference.​
