Career

A student might pursue a position in a local, state or federal agency that focuses on African-American, minority, ethnic or cultural issues.

It could be in an organization that has a multinational or multicultural work force. In addition, a graduate with this concentration might serve as a teacher or official in a school system that includes the study of the lives of African Americans in its curriculum.
