The Peace and Conflict Studies Minor

The minor in Peace and Conflict Studies (PACS) is multidisciplinary in its approach and is designed to provide students with the conceptual and practical tools to understand and resolve conflicts and to build peace in a globalized world.  Students use methodologies from the social sciences and humanities to explore the causes and relationships that create conflict and peace.

The Peace and Conflict Studies Minor officially began in the Fall Semester of 2008.  

 

PACS-Related Events and Activities

  • Two upcoming dates to keep in mind and celebrate are:
  • September 21, which is the UN International Day of Peace
  • October 2 is UN Nonviolence Day, and is also the birthday of Mahatma Gandhi
  • To kick off the Peace and Conflict Studies minor, we joined with the School of Communication Studies in hosting the International Conference on Media, War and Conflict Resolution from September 17 to 19, 2008.  For more information about the conference, click on this link.
