Presentation

The associate degree curriculum in ethnic studies is designed to foster individual cultural identity and cross-cultural communication, develop a consciousness about the American pluralistic society and its origins, and provide basic education regarding professional careers involving intercultural relations in fields such as arts, business education, government, health, law, public relations and public service. Emphasis will be on a cultural survey of Native Americans, Asian Americans, African Americans and Mexican Americans/Latinos from the Pre-Columbian period to the present and the contributions of these ethnic groups to U.S. society. Enrichment and global perspective will be added to majors such as Art, Anthropology, Child Development, Dance, Education, English, Foreign Language, History, Music, Psychology and Sociology. Completion of the degree program prepares students to pursue a major leading to a baccalaureate degree.
