The cultural studies major invites students to investigate how culture is produced, the impact of consuming, performing, and experiencing culture, and how culture shapes communities. With a specific focus on critical thought/theory and social justice, the cultural studies major is particularly invested in the examination of culture through the study of power. In other words, it studies how racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, xenophobia, classism and other forms of oppression influence culture and vise-versa. 

The cultural studies major gives students the opportunity to develop writing, researching and communication skills on topics they are passionate about. The skills gained will allow them to become experts in critical theory, cultural critique and the art of advocacy.
