Prospective Students

As the world confronts persistent problems of violence and conflict, growing numbers of college students are realizing that their futures are inextricably linked to events and individuals in other countries. Poverty, health crises, political repression, ideological and religious intolerance, and thwarted aspirations for freedom fuel conflicts and war. No longer can any of us presume that we are secure from the effects of overseas strife. Many students are choosing to do something about these global problems by studying international affairs and particularly pursuing the growing field of Peace Studies.
