Steering Committee

Because the study of conflict is interdisciplinary in nature, our steering committee is composed of members from several different departments. All of our committee members have taught cross-listed courses and some have taught the introductory course (CFT 100) and the senior capstone course (CFT 430). Members are appointed to two-year terms and all are available for advising or consultation. Please come meet us as you shape your program in Conflict Studies.
