Joan B. Kroc School of Peace Studies at University of San Diego

The Joan B. Kroc School of Peace Studies (Kroc School) at the University of San Diego is a global hub for peacebuilding and social innovation. Since 2007, we have prepared the next generation of changemakers to build more peaceful and just societies. Our graduate programs in peace and justice, social innovation, humanitarian action, conflict management and resolution, restorative justice, and a concurrent degree in peace and law have drawn students from more than 50 countries.

Beyond the classroom, the Kroc School advances change through the Kroc Institute for Peace and Justice, the Center for Restorative Justice, and hands-on learning opportunities. Together with our faculty and students, these centers drive research and community partnerships that create lasting impact. At the Kroc School, we are working toward a future where peace is the norm.
