社会正义研究

沉浸在非盟的历史和对社会正义的承诺

The 社会正义研究 program seeks to raise questions about structural inequality from a variety of perspectives, 促进跨越学科界限和意识形态界线的对话. 我们想让学生参与进来, 教师, and staff not in a particular political project but in a habit of critical inquiry, 愿意审视我们的社会和我们自己在其中的地位.

总学时要求20-22

社会正义研究 is an interdisciplinary minor that reflects Alfred University’s commitment to social justice and honors the university’s roots in 19th century social justice movements. Social justice movements work toward a society characterized by equitable distribution of various kinds of resources (political, 经济, 文化, 等.)向所有身份组别开放.

辅修社会正义研究, students develop the tools to analyze and the vocabulary to talk about systems of advantage and disadvantage that perpetuate inequality at the interpersonal, 机构, 文化层面. They acquire familiarity with social movements and strategies that have been used historically to dismantle systemic inequality and to effect social change. 他们根据所学来审视自己的身份和行为, and engage in experiential learning—getting outside of the classroom environment to develop and implement action plans and then reflecting on their experience.

The course of study includes both the breadth of an introductory core course and the depth and autonomy of a 教师-supervised capstone experience. Students also take courses from a variety of disciplines and are strongly encouraged to take advantage of experiential learning opportunities.

学生必须先修核心课程再修选修课吗?

No. However, we encourage students to take the core course as soon as possible.

Are there general education courses that might be useful for an SJST student to take?

我们强烈建议将SOCI 110作为基础课程, particularly because it's the prerequisite for advanced courses in Sociology that may be of interest to a student in the SJS program.

SJST的选修课是否与其他专业或辅修科目重复计算?

Four credits of SJST electives can double count for other majors and minors. 至少有十个选修学分必须是SJST辅修专业所独有的. (However, general education requirements can double-count as SJST electives.)

学生可以用SJST辅修做什么?

对政府工作感兴趣的学生, 在社会工作方面, 作为社区活动家或组织者, in non-profit work locally or NGO’s internationally—among other careers—would find an SJST minor valuable. An SJST minor will also help prepare students for graduate work of all kinds.
