Peace and Conflict: An Interdisciplinary Look (GI) (D) (3 Credits)

This course provides a basic introduction to the emerging field of peace and conflict studies. Because of the variety of interpersonal, professional, political, and international arenas where conflict arises, this course takes an interdisciplinary approach to the subject. Disciplines that may be examined include but are not limited to business, history, international affairs, law, literature, philosophy, political science, psychology, religion, science, sociology, and the visual and performing arts. Specific issues include the roots and causes of conflict, symptoms and dynamics of conflict, and responses to conflict. This course may require field trip(s). A reasonable alternative option to the required field trip will be available. Prerequisite: ENG 101.
