The Nuclear Age Course Syllabi Project is designed to be a service

• to faculty who wish to expand their syllabi, or who are planning courses for the first time, to faculty supervisors who are preparing graduate students for academic positions, and
• to the general public as a display of examples of scholarly excellence.

This project also fulfills the goals of the Foundation as an educational organization in that the collection

• encourages communication among teachers, encourages communication among teachers and the public, and
• in that the collection becomes a unique online repository for syllabi in the field of peace education.
