Peace Studies Certificate

Established in 2000, the Peace Studies Program at the University Of North Texas is the only program of its kind in the southern and southwestern United States that offers a certificate program, a minor, and the equivalent of a major in Peace Studies.

An interdisciplinary certificate in this growing field allows you to adjust your course work to best fit your field of interest. Because Peace Studies courses are offered in Political Science, Anthropology, Communications, Economics, History, and Sociology, a minor in Peace Studies is a perfect supplement to any undergraduate education.

The Peace Studies Program at UNT also offers several scholarships. Upon graduation, there are also a number of different options for Peace Studies graduates to pursue a career in the following areas:

• employment in a foreign service
• service in an international organization
• practicing international and human-rights law
• employment in a corporation that invests in foreign nations
• a profession in a non-governmental organization working on human rights violations, substantial economic development, environmental protection and/or conflict resolution
