Licenciatura en Estudios Afroamericanos

A Bachelor of Arts degree in African American Studies is designed to hone and enhance students’ research, writing, and critical thinking skills through an interdisciplinary approach. Students, therefore, are required to take a range of courses in the humanities and social sciences, as well as courses that focus on civil and human rights and Diaspora studies.

Twelve courses are required for the major in African American Studies. Our curriculum is designed to provide students with rich foundational knowledge and disciplinary breadth within AAS while also allowing students to concentrate in areas of their greatest interest.

A Leading Research University

Since 1836, Emory’s mission—to create, preserve, teach, and apply knowledge in the service of humanity—has guided the university in its work to drive discovery, serve the common good, and prepare leaders to make a difference in the world.

At the heart of Emory's impact is a distinct purpose: to think beyond oneself. This purpose—this sense of responsibility—is present among students, faculty, and alumni across generations. Whether you work here, teach here, learn or connect here, Emory is a community of impact where the greater good is balanced with individual interest. Our courageous community of seekers and solvers continues to imagine and realize the university’s mission: to create, preserve, teach, and apply knowledge in the service of humanity.
