Examine the roots of conflict and find peaceful solutions to create positive social change.

Canada's first peace studies program connects you to unconventional, nonviolent ways to transform conflict and work for positive social change. Think critically about peace and culture. Explore theories of conflict resolution, human rights, and international development.

In our internship and fieldwork program, you'll have the opportunity to live in communities as far away as Laos, Bangladesh, and Nepal.

Learn about possible career areas by gaining paid co-op work experience. Apply to Arts and Business Co-op and choose Peace and Conflict Studies as your major at the end of first year.

Through our Peace and Conflict Studies Living-Learning Community, you can live with students interested in similar issues. Engage in discussions relating to social justice and global affairs while participating in projects and events that bring awareness and make a difference.
