Conflict Studies or International Development and Humanitarian Assistance

LSE offers both courses, but I really dont know which one to apply for.

What does everyone think? Which would be more useful if you are planning to go into the development sector?
International development sounds broad enough, but to specialise in conflict, would that be better?

Anyone enrolled on these courses? Pros and cons?


Thanks guys

Having done MA Conflict, Security and Development at Sussex I'd opt for the second one as the title sounds more practical and related to the field. The first name sounds theoretical and may not look as good on an application to the development sector as the other one. Even a little edge like that can be crucial as the development field is notoriously hard to get into
