Program details
Overview
Conflict Resolution Studies at the University of Winnipeg is a three-year Bachelor of Arts delivered jointly by the University of Winnipeg and Menno Simons College, offered through Canadian Mennonite University in affiliation with the university. Students can take it as a Major or a Minor, and it can be combined with majors in Psychology, Business, Politics, Religious Studies, Sociology, Criminal Justice, or International Development Studies. Coursework addresses violence, power, justice, peace, communication, and dispute resolution. The program page describes it as intended for students who want to understand and respond constructively to conflict at personal, local, and global levels. Career areas cited include mediation, counselling, education and training, child and family services, law enforcement, government, non-governmental organizations, business, and law. Because it is delivered through an affiliated college rather than directly by the university's own departments, the program suits students specifically seeking a dedicated conflict-resolution credential that can stand as a major on its own or be paired with study in a related discipline, rather than students looking for conflict-resolution content folded into a conventional single-department arts degree.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: The program page defers to The University of Winnipeg's general admission requirements and states that no specific high school courses are required. Applicants whose first language is not English, and who are not from an English-exempt country, must meet the university's English proficiency requirement, set out on The University of Winnipeg's own admission requirements page: IELTS Academic 6.5 overall; TOEFL iBT 4.5 overall with no component below 4.0 for tests taken on or after January 21, 2026 (86 overall with no component below 20 for tests taken before that date); Duolingo English Test 120; Pearson PTE Academic 58; CAEL 60 (CAEL online 70); LanguageCert Academic 67; or Cambridge C1 Advanced/C2 Proficiency 180, with results no more than two years old. International applicants apply online through the university's application portal and pay a non-refundable CAD $120 application fee, with official transcripts sent directly from the issuing institution to the Admissions Office; recommended international deadlines are June 15 for Fall (September), October 15 for Winter (January), and February 15 for Spring (May), and applying three to four months ahead is encouraged to allow time for study-permit processing.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants (Canadian citizens, permanent residents and refugees) apply directly to the University of Winnipeg: for the Faculties of Arts, Business and Economics, Kinesiology and Science the suggested deadline is July 2 for Fall (September) entry, November 1 for Winter (January) entry and March 1 for Spring (May) entry; the Faculty of Education recommends March 1 for high-school and mature applicants, with a final deadline of June 1 subject to space. International applicants are advised to apply by June 15 (Fall, shown on the live page as an 'extended' deadline), October 15 (Winter) or February 15 (Spring). All of these are suggested rather than firm cut-offs: late applications may still be considered, and admission runs on an effectively rolling basis until a term is full. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
