Courses in Africana Studies: African Americans, Africans and the Diaspora

Candidates for a concentration in "Africana Studies: African Americans, Africans and the Diaspora" complete five courses. The two core courses are: AFR 200 as an introductory course; and AFR 400, the senior seminar with special topics or themes emphasized each year. Additional courses may be taken with faculty and visiting professors associated with the program. We encourage that students take at least one course in a program/department other than Africana Studies and consider an experiential learning winter study session.

 

For courses offered in Africana Studies, see the course catalog on the Registrar's webisite.
