An interdisciplinary minor in this growing field allows students to adjust their course
work to best fit their 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 for students who minor in Peace Studies. Upon graduation, there are also a number
of different options for Peace Studies graduates to pursue a career in the following
areas:
Study Abroad in Peace Studies
Peace Studies supports several study abroad courses, including the 5-week (summer)
London Program and a 3-week Maymester course at the Interantional Criminal Tribunal
on Yugoslavia in the Hague, Netherlands.
Internships
Peace Studies students have interned locally with the Center for Suvivors of Torture,
the International Rescue Committee, the Innocence Project of Texas, as well as the
Landmine Survivors Network (Washington D.C.). Most interns are awarded an Aileen Andrew Peace Intern Scholarship during their internship.
