Program Summary

Take this program if you have a strong desire to not only understand human conflict, but to help put an end to the world’s needless suffering through viable peace-based methods and practices.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

The two-year Peace Studies Diploma emphasizes building cultures of peace through interdisciplinary study, conflict analysis and transformation and service learning. Students also have the opportunity to study internationally in PEAC 205: Global Perspective in Peace: An Independent Studies Course.

The global landscape is changing as individuals

and groups seek new ways to address conflict

that adheres to principles of nonviolence and sustainability. In these exciting times, you can strive to be part of the global peace movement that looks at these events in a different light, choosing to see hope and optimism by viewing situations from the perspective of peace and justice.

Emphasizing peace from the interpersonal to the international, this program combines courses

in humanities and social sciences and gives you opportunities to engage in various service learning experiences or in self-directed peace studies related academic research.
