Graduate Opportunities with RIDGS
A key part of our commitment to support and grow the RIDGS community of scholars is the support of graduate students. We have a wide range of opportunities, from curriculum to funding to writing support.
Graduate Minor
The Graduate Minor in Race, Indigeneity, Disability, Gender, and Sexuality (RIDGS) offers graduate students a critical, interdisciplinary framework for analyzing how categories like race, indigeneity, gender, and disability intersect and shape systems of power and inequality. Designed to complement any graduate program, RIDGS emphasizes transnational, comparative, and relational approaches to social justice scholarship.
