Are you interested in poverty, inequality and social justice? Hoping to pursue these interests through interdisciplinary coursework? Trying to find ways to engage in concrete efforts to address inequality and promote democratic social change?

Come learn more about the new Minor in Poverty, Inequality and Social Justice. This interdisciplinary undergraduate minor will provide students with the tools to understand the structural and political roots, dynamics and consequences of poverty and intersectional inequality; conduct original research; and engage meaningfully in efforts to address poverty through policy, practice and social action. It is housed in the History Department, and affiliated with the Blum Center for Global Poverty Alleviation and Sustainable Development.
