Critical Studies Underway
The Transcultural Conflict and Violence initiative is recognized as a center of research that facilitates interdisciplinary teams to integrate advanced methodologies and technology into their work.
Global threats are expected to increase with potentially deadly consequences for victims and political consequences on an international stage.
