Rutgers University School of Arts and Sciences-Newark 16 courses 120 total credits
Our focus on justice is deeply intertwined with Rutgers University-Newark's social mission that values individuals of diverse racial, ethnic, religious, and national backgrounds. The program will utilize the humanities, broadly conceived, as the mechanism by which to address racialized, gendered, and intersectional experiences of disability identities, histories, and labeling practices and make explicit the advancements that can be made through the creation of transformative practices on individual, social, and institutional levels.
