Thus, our goals are to give our students an affirmative, transformative experience through learning about Africa\u2019s people and Diasporic contributions to world culture with their arts, labor, resources, and civil and human rights ideologies.\u00a0 We embrace this new challenge to prepare our students to meet the current challenges of the 21st Century that Africa faces because it is central to the geocentric quest for peace and harmony throughout the world.<\/p>\n<p>To accomplish these goals we rely on an extraordinary diverse faculty that are experts in a number of disciplines throughout all of our various Schools at Ramapo College.\u00a0 Our faculty is united in the belief of preparing our students to be global citizens in our technologically advancing world in the 21st century.\u00a0 Furthermore, the Faculty believes that this must be done by developing our students\u2019 critical thinking skills, oral competence, writing ability, technological and ecological literacy in order to facilitate positive change on behalf of the African Diaspora and humanity.<\/p>\n<p>Since many of our courses double-count, students are encouraged to double-major and\/or minor to increase their career options and opportunities.\u00a0 Thus, an Africana Studies major with literature, business, international studies, music, history, or communications is welcomed.<\/p>\n<h4>What can you do with a B.A. in Africana Studies Degree? Jobs, Business Opportunities, Graduate School:<\/h4>\n<p>This region in particular provides current job opportunities and an immense future growth of opportunities for an Africana Studies major because it\u2019s near New York City, which is a global and international hub.\u00a0 An Africana studies major can get a job in the emerging global financial business industry, with International Relief Agencies, with Federal or State Diplomatic services, with the Central Intelligence Agency, with United Nation agencies, with religious Foreign Missions, in International education.\u00a0 Also, they will get jobs in the traditional jobs of teaching education.\u00a0 For example, in the State Legislation of New Jersey in 2002 they passed the Amistad Act Law chapter 16A of title 52, requiring all New Jersey schools teach the history of African Americans.\u00a0 There are also many options for those who want to pursue a Masters as well as a Ph.D. if so desired.\u00a0 In the past as well as currently other traditional jobs in news media, popular magazines, entertainment, politics, social work, etc. have been successfully held by college graduates with this major and there is solid research on this topic.\u00a0 (See \u201cWhat Can You do with a Black Studies Major and Minor\u201d by Robert Fikes, Librarian San Diego State University 2004)<\/p>\n<p>The Africana Studies Major leads to the B.A. Degree, and is offered through the School of Social Science and Human Services.\u00a0 A minor is also available.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"collapsableContent\" tabindex=\"0\" type=\"button\"><div class=\"collapsableTitle\">Requirements of the Major <\/div>\n<ol>\n<li>Transfer students who have 48 or more credits accepted at the time of transfer are waived from the courses marked with a <strong><strong>(W)<\/strong> <\/strong> below.\u00a0 Waivers only apply to General Education Requirements NOT School Core or Major Requirements.<\/li>\n<li>Double counting between General Education, School Core, and Major may be possible.\u00a0 Check with your advisor to see if any apply.<\/li>\n<li>Writing Intensive Requirement (six courses): \u00a0three writing intensive courses in the general education curriculum are required: First Year Seminar, Critical Reading and Writing (formerly College English), and Readings in the Humanities; the other three courses are taken in the major.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h5 align=\"center\"><strong>AFRICANA STUDIES MAJOR<\/strong><\/h5>\n<div class=\"courseTable\">\n<ul>\n<li class=\"majorTableHeading\">Subject &amp; Course # &#8211; Title &amp; Course Description<\/li>\n<li class=\"majorTableSubHeading\">GENERAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS<\/li>\n<li><a id=\"69dae9dcdd836\" href=\"https:\/\/catalog.ramapo.edu\/courses\/INTD101\" target=\"_blank\">INTD 101 -
