Introduction
In this area of emphasis, history, culture, and contemporary issues are explored and analyzed through the intersecting perspectives of ethnicity, race, class, and gender. The curriculum combines an interdisciplinary knowledge of our socio-cultural world. Courses are open to all students in the College. Enrollment is encouraged for those who are seriously concerned about diversity and life quality in the 21st century. This area of emphasis prepares students for Gender, Ethnicity, and Multicultural Studies; Ethnic Studies; Women’s Studies; and similar disciplines at CSU, UC, and private schools. Fields in which such concerns can find application are teaching, urban planning, social services, politics, recreation, law, the ministry, and many others. Such fields of study typically require advanced degrees.
To be eligible for an AA degree, you must complete general education requirements in addition to the area of emphasis course requirements.
