Programme Overview

The B.Sc. Peace and Conflict Resolution at SKAUP University of Business and Technology (SUBT) prepares students to understand the root causes of conflict and to develop practical strategies for building peace in societies, organisations, and international contexts. The programme draws from political science, sociology, law, psychology, and international relations, equipping graduates with the skills to mediate disputes, design peacebuilding programmes, and contribute to social transformation.

Delivered through SUBT’s Open and Distance Learning (ODL) model, the programme combines academic knowledge with real-world case studies, role-play simulations, and field-based research. Through the SKAUP Innovation Centre (SKAUP-IC) and partnerships with peacebuilding organisations, students also explore opportunities to apply their learning in community development, policy-making, and entrepreneurship in the peace and security sector.
