It is organized around core competencies necessary for effective analysis and advocacy leading to social transformation. With courses from a wide array of social science and humanities disciplines, the certificate curriculum emphasizes a practice-oriented approach that enables students to understand and respond to social disparities and structural inequalities associated with race, class, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, nationality, and other identities.
