Overview

Honours B.A. in Conflict Studies

The B.A. in Conflict Studies at Saint Paul University is designed to prepare you to professionally analyze and manage various disputes by demonstrating both objectivity and empathy

To do so, you will examine the origins and dynamics that underlie conflicts while considering their political, psychological, and social dimensions. 

With the help of case studies, practical exercises, and lectures, you will deepen and apply methods that serve to prevent, manage and resolve conflicts. 

You will learn how to use various active listening techniques and several negotiation and mediation tools

To do this, you will explore a wide range of non-violent, humanitarian, and diplomatic solutions to conflicts and actions that promote peace, social justice, and reconciliation.

By the end of the program, you will know how to act as a neutral third party while being able to propose conflict resolution strategies and comprehensive response plans.

The Centre for Informal Dispute Resolution

The Centre for Informal Dispute Resolution is an organization with a practical orientation run by the School of Conflict Studies.

It offers students the opportunity to enhance their practical training in the informal, inclusive and peaceful resolution of disputes.

This diploma is conferred jointly with the University of Ottawa.
