Ethnic Studies CU Boulder

Ethnic Studies CU Boulder Department of Ethnic Studies, University of Colorado Boulder and beyond. For more information about our department, please visit ethnicstudies.colorado.edu

The field of Ethnic Studies was born out of, and is dedicated to, struggles for social justice for all people. The Department of Ethnic Studies at the University of Colorado at Boulder draws on this tradition of engaged scholarship to examine how race and the interrelated categories of ethnicity, gender, class, and sexuality impact the lives of people in the United States and around the globe. Our interdisciplinary department offers an undergraduate major and minor, and a graduate certificate in comparative ethnic studies. Our faculty members engage in a wide variety of research on the cultures, histories, epistemologies, and experiences of African American, Asian American, Chicana/o, and Native American peoples in the U.S. Their research and teaching address these topics through critical, transnational, diasporic, decolonial feminist, queer, and comparative perspectives.
