The African/African American Studies Minor enables students to conduct an in-depth study on the peoples and cultures of Africa and its huge Diaspora, particularly the African American population. To do this, the Minor combines faculty expertise from a variety of disciplines to give students a deeper understanding of not only the origin of but also the dynamic cultural mix that now constitutes the African Diaspora.
