Africana Studies is a cross-disciplinary area of study that is necessarily global in scope and theoretically diverse. This minor gives you a core course to ground your pursuit of African, African American, Afro-Caribbean and Black studies in a survey of the major themes and ideas of the discipline. The remainder of the minor is flexible, allowing you to select courses that match your interests and schedules. These include courses from across campus, including performing arts, sociology, history, political science, literature, environmental science and special topics courses.
