The Ethnic & Cultural Studies Department is interdisciplinary in nature, coordinating the courses, activities, and projects that will enhance students' abilities to function in our increasingly multicultural, multiethnic world. Courses draw on methodologies and theories from both the social sciences and humanities, allowing students to develop an understanding of multiple perspectives and to connect ideas across disciplines. In view of increasing diversity in the U.S. and globalization worldwide, the department provides students with a focus on ethnic and cultural issues, exposure to scholarship from historically underrepresented groups, and preparation to live in a culturally complex world.
