Interdisciplinary Study
CRST majors engage in an interdisciplinary study of race and ethnicity through courses that are cross-listed in many departments in St. Kate’s two-year and four-year degree programs, including:
- Art
- Biology
- Economics
- English
- History
- Philosophy
- Sociology
- Communications studies
- Women’s studies
Like women's studies, this program emerged from social movements, represents a link between activism and academia and calls for inclusion on the campus and in the curriculum.
Research topics that matter
- Media representations
- Criminal justice system
- Immigration policy
- Hate crimes and legal responses
- History and legacy of slavery
- Black feminist thought

Learning occurs in the community. Recent internships have included Jane Addams School for Democracy and Citizenship, Casa de Esperanza, Women's Prison Book Project, African American Family Alliance, Resource Center of the Americas, PEACE Prison Ministry at Wayman AME and The Hmong Times.
