African and African American Studies, BA

Wright State University

Sign up for the African and African American Studies (AAFS) program and learn about the contributions Africa has made to the global human experience and explore the various conditions that have affected people of African descent. The AAFS program provides you with skills that will enable you to more effectively speak and write about the experiences and contributions of people in Africa and the African Diaspora. You will appreciate the interdisciplinary nature of the AAFS program, which allows for a rich and challenging field of inquiry that can benefit you if you have an interest in history, policy, culture, language, law, foreign affairs, medicine, sociology, psychology, education, and various other areas. If you wish to engage in more concentrated study within the major, you may design an appropriate course of study through directed readings and independent learning with the permission of the program director and a professor within the program.
