Key Summary

About : The African & African American Studies programme offers an interdisciplinary approach to understanding the historical, cultural, and social contexts of African and African American experiences. Students engage in critical analysis of literature, history, and social issues. This programme typically spans two years and includes diverse coursework focused on equity, social justice, and cultural expression.

Career Outcomes : Graduates can pursue careers in education, public policy, social work, community organization, and cultural institutions. They may also find opportunities in research, journalism, and international relations, leveraging their understanding of societal dynamics and advocating for underrepresented voices.

Our program draws from expertise in the fields of anthropology, gender studies, history, language and literature, music and the performing arts, international studies, and sociology. In doing so, we address critical questions concerning cultural and intellectual production, gender, race, ethnicity, diversity, empowerment, global justice, and systemic violence.

The minor equips students to think critically about our intimately interconnected world. Students will develop the necessary skills to convey and articulate the conditions and experiences of African societies and communities of the African Diaspora into spaces that include business and law, policy, performance, research, public discourse
