Majoring in comparative ethnic studies (CES) provides students with the opportunity to study the stories and experiences of communities of color, particularly in the United States. The major offers understanding of the historical forces and social dynamics of racism and racial inequality worldwide. CES provides students with the knowledge, tools, and motivation to become agents of change.

Strengths of the program

The program brings top scholars and activists to campus to promote engaged understanding. The program's commitment to undergraduate education provides unique opportunities for students to work closely with faculty on independent studies or special projects. The diverse and flexible curriculum allows students to take an in-depth examination of a particular community or prepare for a specific career. The program offers opportunities for seminars, fieldwork, study abroad, and other experiential learning modes. Each student has a faculty mentor who is a resource for majors who are pursuing graduate degrees, undergraduate research, academic publications, and career exploration within the field. Scholarships are offered annually to new students, continuing students, and students who wish to study abroad.

Requirements and core courses

Central to our consideration of race are the ways class, gender, ethnicity, nationality, sexuality, age, and ability shape the human experience. CES courses have an interdisciplinary focus on popular culture, sports, media, and social issues and how they relate to race, class, and gender.

CES faculty scholars facilitate understanding of how the social constructions of race impact the social fabric of our historical and contemporary world, and prepare community members to actively and critically engage in their civic responsibilities, especially with respect to social justice.

Suggested strengths, interests, and preparation

Strong reading, writing, and critical thinking skills, or a desire to develop these skills.

A willingness to engage in critical discussions and constructive analyses of structures of domination, privilege, colonization, and other prominent themes central to cultural and ethnic studies.
