MA in Peace and Justice (MAPJ)

Curriculum and Pathways

The Master of Arts in Peace and Justice (MAPJ) courses develop knowledge of peacebuilding and social justice while sharpening skills for applying that knowledge beyond the classroom. The curriculum is rich with applied opportunities, including local and international field-based courses, simulations, and more.

The 39-unit program can be completed in two years (full-time). Full-time students take 9-10 units per semester. The part-time program is designed for students and working professionals who are not able to pursue full-time study and would like to have the ability to work on the master's program at their own pace. The MAPJ can be completed anytime within 6 consecutive years.
