Comparative Studies in Race and Ethnicity (BA)

专业详情

The Interdepartmental Program in Comparative Studies in Race and Ethnicity (CSRE) is an interdisciplinary program offering students the opportunity to investigate the significance of race and ethnicity in all areas of human life. The program’s mission is to educate students to be leaders and produce knowledge for race and justice. Devoted to a rigorous analysis of race and ethnicity and using a comparative and interdisciplinary approach, CSRE promotes and deepens students’ understanding of the multiple meanings of racial and ethnic diversity both in the United States and abroad. The program prepares students for living and working effectively in a multicultural world. The interdisciplinary and integrated nature of the academic programs means that students take courses from across the university including: anthropology, art, communication, economics, education, history, languages, linguistics, literature, music, philosophy, political science, psychology, religion, sociology, theater and performance, among others.

Officially declared subplans are available only to students majoring in Comparative Studies in Race & Ethnicity (CSRE).

 20-25 units of subplan focused courses must also be taken in order to complete this requirement.

CSRE majors are required to declare a formal subplan, and may have the opportunity to design an individualized subplan if their interests are not already covered by the existing subplans. Subplans are noted on student transcripts and diplomas; individually designed thematic foci will appear as “Self-Designed” on the transcript and diploma.
