Certificate in Peace Studies |
As an academic program, Peace Studies draws from a variety
of disciplines that address the issues of peace, violence,
conflict or cooperation in communities and cultures. The
interdisciplinary nature of the program enables a student
to pursue the concepts and realities of peace, war, and
violence from a variety of perspectives: strategies of transition
to global cooperation; theories and practices of conflict
resolution; non-violent methods to implement social change;
economics of war and peace; images of peace and violence
in philosophy, literature and the arts; history of pacifism
and non-violent resistance; and the nature of global and
local conflict related to the environment and natural resources.
