AFST 350 - Introduction to African Studies


Fall or Spring (3) (College 200, CSI)

This seminar is an introduction to areas, issues, and disciplinary approaches in the study of Africa and African peoples.   Its objectives are to stimulate interest in the continent, create awareness of its diversity and complexity, to acquaint students with a range of African histories, economies, institutions, aesthetics and systems of thought, and to teach students to work interdisciplinarily. (This course is anchored in the CSI domain, and also considers aspects of the ALV domain.)
