CHABSS - Ethnic Studies

The Ethnic Studies Major operates from a comparative approach. Core curriculum of the program anchors students in an ethnic studies perspective intellectually, theoretically, and methodologically. Three themes characterize the curriculum: Colonialism, Migration and Diasporas; The State, Inequality and Resistance; and, Identities and Representation. Students have an opportunity to demonstrate their knowledge of ethnic studies via application in a capstone project and/or field-work opportunities in racial-ethnic communities.
