Multicultural and Equity Studies in Education, Doctor of Philosophy in Teaching and Learning
As a doctoral student in Multicultural and Equity Studies in Education, you will carefully study the ways that identity have structured and marshaled to create inequality in teaching, learning and educational research. You will explore these contexts from social, historical, cultural, transnational and global perspectives.
Faculty and students in this area of study are concerned with social justice in education. This demands the sort of in-depth examination of racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, xenophobia and their intersections that multiculturalism in our global society requires.
