Innovative Learning

 

An inter-disciplinary program, Labor Studies relates history, economics, law, and analysis of society, politics, and culture to the issues that affect workers and their organizations. The program teaches a variety of subjects, from applied research to public advocacy, from negotiation to globalization. Students participate in an adult-oriented, self-paced curriculum that allows flexible learning options and may apply relevant life and work experience. They also have opportunities to conduct collaborative projects, apply theories to practice in a range of community settings, and reflect on their experience in an environment that encourages critical engagement.
