Graduate Program
The Graduate Conflict Transformation Program is intentionally interdisciplinary in nature. Consequently, students in every college of the University of North Florida may study in the CT Program. Below are 3-unit courses with CT foci that are offered for graduate students.
The Department of Counseling and Educational Leadership at the University of North Florida offers an interdisciplinary Graduate Certificate that is acceptable to fulfill the Cognate requirement in the Leadership doctoral program. This graduate certificate seeks to establish a supportive learning community that emphasizes reflection, self knowledge, cross-cultural understanding, nonviolent communication and proactive conflict transformation. Students develop knowledge and skills for understanding and addressing conflict within academic institutions, governments, nongovernmental organizations, the private sector, the media, and other professional venues.
Cognate Requirements: Minimum of 12 Credits
Certificate Requirements: Minimum of 18 Credits
