Communication Studies
Leaders in every industry are those who can communicate. A communication studies degree will help you develop practical and critical skills, including the ability to think, speak, and write clearly. Graduates work in many areas, including nonprofit, media, business, and government.
Conflict Transformation Studies
Prepare to work in community organizing, restorative justice, peace building, violence reduction, environmental advocacy, and more. Along with studying the history and context of global conflicts, you’ll learn to conduct research and analysis and gain more self-awareness in an effort to pursue creative, nonviolent approaches to help in conflict situations.
