Peace Studies Minor Overview


Peace Studies Minor ~ Overview

The Peace Studies Minor offers an interdisciplinary analysis of conflict and nonviolent movements both in the U.S. and globally. The Peace Studies Minor combines Human Communication's multicultural and ethical reflexivity with Global Studies' purview of complex global systems. Student learning is supported through our commitment to assets-based learning models and the minor's dual approach of process (conflict resolution and nonviolence skills) and content (global conflict, feminist theory of violence, religious peacemaking, histories and philosophies of nonviolence). Peace Studies Minors will engage the campus community with the surrounding communities in shared commitments to developing scholarly and applied strategies for peace building.

Integration with Majors
