Minor Program

African Studies Institute offers two minors:

Minor In African Studies | Minor in African Languages

The African continent is the oldest and the most diverse continent in the world. The diversity of the continent is highlighted in every aspect of life: the people, the languages, the vegetation, the political traditions, the economic practices, the belief systems, world views and so on. An understanding of this unique and diverse continent will not only heighten your sensitivity to the changing nature of the world but it will also improve your comprehension of globalization and interrelationships of all human history and culture. A minor in African Studies will enhance your abilities, options, and opportunities as you enter the global market place.
