As we enter the 21st century it will be difficult to live or work in the United States without a well-developed
understanding of race, culture, and ethnicity. Global changes impact our nation as more and more people migrate
to the U.S. for economic, cultural, educational, and political reasons. Through the Ethnicity, Race and First
Nations Studies Program, students will learn:
- Fundamental, theoretical and political questions regarding the social construction of categories of race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, class and nation.
- How American culture has been continually reshaped by historical and contemporary movements of people, commerce, and ideas across global borders.
- How to study issues in a comparative, relational, and multidisciplinary fashion in order to critically analyze questions of power and social justice.
- How to apply classroom theories to community-based internships and research.
