Continuing your studies in Conflict Resolution

There has been a growing trend in the United States (and several other countries) to offer programs that teach Conflict Resolution in concert with Peace and Global Studies. Numerous colleges and Universities are beginning to offer it as a major while several Universities have also developed graduate programs for people who want to study conflict resolution or peace in a graduate program.

Take for example Earlham College's Peace and Global Studies program. It is an undergraduate program that attempts to help students understand the basics of international relations as well as techniques which can be used on both the local and national level to create positive change in the world. Students even get to practice conflict resolution skills in a classroom environment, learning how to accomodate for gender and racial issues as they do so.

Here are some examples of Conflict Resolution and Global Studies programs across the country:

Earlham College - Peace and Global Studies
Lesley University - Conflict Resolution and Peaceable Schools Specialization
School for International Training - Conflict Transformation
Nova Southeastern University - Conflict Analysis and Resolution
University of Denver - Conflict Resolution
Arcadia University - Peace Studies
