PART OF THE PUBLIC POLICY, SOCIETY, AND IDENTITY FLIGHT PATH

Students in Indigenous, Race, and Ethnic Studies examine the relationship of race and ethnicity to power and inequality, with special emphasis on intersections with gender, class, sexuality, migration, indigeneity, and colonialism. IRES students study historical and contemporary manifestations of white supremacy and investigate how systems of domination as well as social struggles create racial subjects. The program aims to raise student awareness of the racial, ethnic, and political dimensions of all spheres of society. As such, a minor in IRES can enrich the academic programs of students in many different fields.

1. Learn to recognize and challenge systems of power and inequality.


2. Explore opportunities to create meaningful social change.


3. Foster understanding across ethnic, racial, and gender lines.


4. Build a foundation for a wide variety of further studies.


5. Prepare for a career in a diverse world.
