Disability Studies Minor

The Disability Studies minor examines the meaning, nature, and consequences of disability, as a social, cultural, and political construct. It provides students the opportunity to challenge normative ableist paradigms that reinforce rigid ideas about the body and personhood for people with disabilities.

This minor is well-matched to majors in public health, public policy, urban planning and design, planning and public policy, kinesiology and health, labor and employment relations, visual and performing arts, health administration, sociology, psychology, and more.

Students seeking the Disability Studies minor must complete three core courses and three electives from an approved list.

  • 37:575:265 Introduction to Disability Studies (3)
  • 10:833:353 Disability Policy & Law (3)
  • 01:377:327 Field Experience for Special Populations* (3)
  • Three electives (9)
  • Minor flow sheet

*May substitute other relevant fieldwork experience with undergraduate advisor approval.
