CAMPUS ALERT
The latest coronavirus information and updates: marquette.edu/coronavirus.
Last updated October 30, 2020
Advising for Spring 2021 begins October 26. Peace studies primary majors are required to virtually meet with Dr. Louise Cainkar during advising. Peace studies minors are encouraged to connect with Parisa Shirazi.
Note: A revised curriculum was instated beginning Fall 2020, so if you declared peace studies before Fall 2020 please reference the previous curriculum.
The peace studies capstone is offered in the spring semester. Seniors who are planning to graduate in December or study abroad in the spring should register for the capstone as a junior.
Please note that the capstone is an internship course. Students will be placed with nonprofits and other organizations in the area. If you already have an internship planned or would like to discuss site possibilities before enrolling, please contact Laurie Marks.
Courses are occasionally offered that fit the themes and requirements of peace studies despite not being formally included in the official peace studies curriculum. The courses listed below will be accepted as waived electives.
Important: it is the student's responsibility to meet with Dr. Cainkar to complete and submit the course waiver form.
Courses not listed below may still be waived in if there is sufficient peace studies content. Students pursuing this option should schedule a meeting and share the course syllabus with Dr. Cainkar.
Below is a list of known equivalent courses that count toward peace studies.
