Faith, Peace & Justice

theology department

The Faith, Peace & Justice minor offers students the opportunity to explore, in an interdisciplinary manner, how their own serious questions about faith, peace and justice are related to concrete work for peace and justice in our world.

The goals of the FPJ Program are to help undergraduate students acquire and develop skills in:

  1. empirical, social scientific analysis of concrete issues for justice and peace;
  2. gaining a solid grasp of the ethical and justice principles that arise from these issues;
  3. learning how to formulate public policy or to initiate social change that would help solve these problems; and
  4. implementing creative methods for conflict resolution appropriate for the level of problem solving their particular issues require.
