We are still taking applications for our PGDip/MSc in Youth Justice and our PGDip/MSc Children's Rights. We're profiling some past students this month. Read Ciara's experience of completing the MSc Youth Justice. More details on the course here - www.qub.ac.uk/courses/post...
Image of a past student with a testimonial reading: "Completing the MSc in Youth Justice at QUB has deepened my understanding of youth issues, children's rights, and the policy and practice that underpins these. It has allowed me to develop critical analytical skills that have enhanced my confidence within my professional role. I got promoted to Head of Service, but more than that it has given me confidence in how I read things and how I look at things! I really miss it!"

We are still taking applications for our PGDip/MSc Children's Rights and PGDip/MSc in Youth Justice. We'll be profiling some past students this month. First up is Jonas who completed the MSc Children's Rights. More details on the course here - www.qub.ac.uk/courses/post...
Image of Jonas Schubert, Head of Advocacy Terre des Hommes with testimonial -The MSc has equipped me with a deeper understanding of children's rights and I have learned how to apply it to a wide range of fields. The focus on rights-based research is an added value of studying at Queen's University. I am definitely a better child rights expert now.
