About Program
SIT’s Global Master of Arts in Humanitarian Assistance & Crisis Management is a full-time, one-year degree designed to develop principled leaders who can respond to complex humanitarian crises through immersive, place-based experiential learning. Grounded in interdisciplinary study, the curriculum explores humanitarian principles, policy, crisis response, and contingency planning while engaging with local organizations and field experts. Study begins in Amman, Jordan, focusing on refugee protection and aid systems, followed by Rabat, Morocco, where learners examine disaster management and asylum policies, including a field excursion to Turkey to observe refugee response. This program is ideal for emerging professionals pursuing careers in humanitarian aid, crisis management, policy analysis, and community resilience.
