Program Description

Ethnic studies is not a separate undergraduate program of study at UCSC, but students with an interest in ethnic studies can find an extensive array of courses on the subject in the following departments: American Studies, Anthropology, Community Studies, Education, Feminist Studies, Film and Digital Media, Economics, History, History of Art and Visual Culture, History of Consciousness, Latin American and Latino Studies, Literature, Music, Politics, Psychology, Sociology, and Theater Arts. The Community Studies Department and the Latin American and Latino Studies Department offer opportunities for fieldwork that extend ethnic studies outside the traditional classroom setting. See also the campus general education requirement (codes E, CC, and ER). Faculty for whom ethnic studies are a professional specialty are listed in the individual departments’ faculty and professional interests sections in the UCSC General Catalog.
