As the world grows smaller with globalization, faster modes of travel and expanding international relations, the need for students in the field of peace studies is more demanding. The peace studies program at ULV combines a strong background in peacemaking and conflict resolution with interdisciplinary courses of the student’s major. Through this approach students will not only learn about pertinent issues within the field of peace studies, but most importantly how to relate those lessons back to their traditional area of study. Students will examine the process of engagement between the individual and the human and natural environments in context that affirms mutual welfare and cooperative security.
