An example from the most recent Mason email:
Peace Engineering: How Technology Can Prevent Conflict and Spur Peacebuilding
Tuesday, March 17 - 6:30 p.m. - Mason Arlington
As our human predicament at the beginning of the 21st Century is on a knife-edge, we need to have a better understanding of how engineering and the use of fast-changing technologies could serve social, political, and economic progress rather than fragmentation, division and destruction.
We invite you to join us for this special event: Peace Engineering: How Technology Can Prevent Conflict and Spur Peacebuilding. The event is hosted by George Mason University's
School for Conflict Analysis and Resolution. The school's dean,
Alpaslan Özerdem, will lead the discussion using examples such as the reconstructed Mostar Bridge in Bosnia-Herzegovena (pictured above). This event is free.
Please RSVP. A reception will follow the program.
There are many more wonderful events taking place at Mason. Learn about them quickly through Mason emails. See you around campus!
