Peace and Conflict Studies is an interdisciplinary path. You have freedom to explore the wide variety of courses in Juniata’s Liberal Arts catalog. We will challenge you to become a changemaker by applying the resources of the academic community to the study of warfare and peace, nonviolence and social justice.
