Building on Ramapo College\u2019s tradition of interdisciplinary inquiry, the Program strives to imbue students with an analysis about Africa and its Diaspora far beyond that of a foundational knowledge base. \u00a0Our goals are to give students an affirmative and 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.<\/p>\n<p>To accomplish these goals we rely on an extraordinary diverse faculty in a number of disciplines throughout all of the Schools at Ramapo College. Our faculty is united by a commitment to prepare our students to be global citizens that can facilitate positive change in Africa and its Diaspora.\u00a0 The Faculty believes that preparation for this kind of global citizenship must be accomplished by developing our students\u2019 critical thinking skills, oral competence, writing ability, technological and ecological literacy.<\/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. Thus, an Africana Studies major with a major or minor in such disciplines as 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 Humanities and Global Studies.\u00a0\u00a0A minor is also available.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"collapsableContent\" tabindex=\"0\"><div class=\"collapsableTitle\"><span class=\"fa-stack\"><i class=\"fa fa-circle fa-stack-2x\"><\/i><i class=\"fa fa-chevron-down fa-stack-1x fa-inverse\"><\/i><i class=\"fa fa-chevron-up fa-stack-1x fa-inverse\"><\/i><\/span>Outcomes for the Major<\/div><div class=\"c_content\">\n<p><strong>Goal 1<\/strong>: Teach students the major historical and contemporary themes and actors related to Africa and its Diaspora<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\"><strong>Outcome 1<\/strong>: Describe the major historical and contemporary themes and actors related to Africa and its Diaspora.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\"><strong>Outcome 2<\/strong>: Explain how Africa and\/or its Diaspora shaped world history and shapes the modern world.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Goal 2<\/strong>: Teach students how to conduct research and write effectively<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\"><strong>Outcome 3<\/strong>:\u00a0 Write clearly and effectively.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\"><strong>Outcome 4<\/strong>:\u00a0 Deliver clear and effective oral presentation.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"collapsableContent\" tabindex=\"0\"><div class=\"collapsableTitle\"><span class=\"fa-stack\"><i class=\"fa fa-circle fa-stack-2x\"><\/i><i class=\"fa fa-chevron-down fa-stack-1x fa-inverse\"><\/i><i class=\"fa fa-chevron-up fa-stack-1x fa-inverse\"><\/i><\/span>Requirements of the Major <\/div><div class=\"c_content\">\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 do not apply to 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 (five courses): \u00a0two writing intensive courses in the general education curriculum are required: Critical Reading and Writing and Studies in the Arts and Humanities; the other three courses are taken in the major.\u00a0 Within the Africana Studies major, students are required to take Introduction to African Studies,\u00a0African American Social and Political Thought, and a third Writing Intensive course taken in consultation with the advisor.<\/li>\n<li>Not all courses are offered each semester. \u00a0Please check the current Schedule of Classes for semester course offerings.<\/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><strong>REQUIRED &#8211;\u00a0<\/strong><a id=\"69d2e634cc375\" href=\"https:\/\/catalog.ramapo.edu\/courses\/CRWT102\" target=\"_blank\">CRWT 102 -
