This major benefits students with bi-vocational interests. It cannot be taken as a double major with the PXD major or the peacebuilding major. Global development majors have the option of taking Summer Peacebuilding Institute (SPI) courses that may substitute for a major requirement when approved by the PXD advisor. Participation in the Summer Peacebuilding Institute of the Center for Justice and Peacebuilding provides students with a unique opportunity to connect with professionals in justice and peacebuilding and related areas of practice.
