Peace Studies Scholarships
There are currently two separate programmes funded by The Rotary Foundation that cover studies in world peace and conflict resolution.
The first is a two-year degree programme that leads to a Masters qualification and is generally known as International Studies in peace and conflict resolution. Additional information on International Studies and where the centres of studies are located can be found on the Rotary International website.
The second is a three-month course held at Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok, Thailand and is known as the Peace and Conflict Studies Program. These courses are held twice a year, conducted in English and are aimed primarily at middle and upper-level managers in governments, non-governmental organizations, and private corporations. The Rotary Foundation will cover the expenses of roundtrip travel between the student's home and Bangkok and each student's employer is expected to cover the approximate US$5,000 cost of the three-month course, including tuition, room-and-board and educational materials. Additional information on Peace and Conflict Studies can be found on the Rotary International website.
