SST 195-01 - Introductory Special Topic: Introduction to Peace and Conflict Studies

4 credits (Fall)

This course will introduce students to the interdisciplinary field of Peace and Conflict studies. Because no single field of study can provide a complete understanding of the issues covered in this field, this course will take multiple disciplinary perspectives as we try to understand the factors that lead to human conflict and aggression, including those that are psychological, sociological, anthropological, environmental, political, economic, religious, and historical in nature. This is a blended learning course which will be team-taught by Prof. Tim Dobe and Prof. George A. Lopez.

Prerequisite: None.
Instructor: Dobe, Lopez
