The Ethnic and Racial Studies program is an interdisciplinary, comparative, and critical study of race, Indigeneity, and ethnicity with a primary focus on the lived experiences, perspectives, theories, and scholarship of and on Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC), Jewish, and Muslim communities within the United States. Some courses will focus on one ethnic or racialized group and geographic area while other courses will work comparatively and internationally.
