THE
AFRICAN AMERICAN STUDIES PROGRAM
AT RUTGERS-CAMDEN
CATALOG DESCRIPTION
The program in African American
studies is designed to provide students with a sound understanding of
the black experience nationally and internationally, while focusing on
North America. The interdepartmental and inter-disciplinary features of
the program allow for a broad and varied exposure to black culture, economics,
politics, and history from Africa to the Americas. Each African American
studies major must take 33 credits in courses approved for the major and
select a departmental minor; the required departmental minor may not be
in another interdisciplinary or area program. Thus the program focuses
the course of study on material that prepares students for meaningful
careers of their choice and/or advanced degree training.
Students who
wish to major in African American studies should consult with the program
director. A grade point average of 2.0 or better is required in courses
for the major or minor in African American studies. This program can be
completed only through daytime attendance.
