Africana Studies is an interdisciplinary course of
study intended to provide students with an understanding of
the historical, social and cultural impact of people of
African descent. Africana Studies also provides a broad
perspective on problems confronting the modern multiracial
world and serves as training for the search for solutions
to these problems. The Africana Studies Program at YSU
offers a major in Africana Studies, leading to the Bachelor
of Arts degree. Also available is a minor in Africana
Studies that complements majors in related areas, such as
economics, education, English, history, philosophy,
political science, religious studies, and sociology.
