The African American and African Diaspora Studies program offers a rigorous interdisciplinary curriculum that provides students with an understanding of the historical and contemporary realities of African-descended peoples in the United States and across the diaspora. Students explore Black social movements and race politics, racial ideologies and critical race theory, and the distinctive artistic, literary, cultural practices of African peoples worldwide.

A minor in African American and African Diaspora Studies will add depth to your major and program of studies. Six of the eighteen credits in a minor in AFAM may be cross-counted towards another major or minor. Consult your advisor and course catalog before declaring/registering.
