SOCI3310 : Cultural Diversity

This course is designed to provide an understanding of human behavior and the social environment. It centers on diversity and vulnerable populations as related to groups, organizations, communities, and special populations as a context of practice and focus of intervention. The reciprocal effects among system levels are emphasized. The behaviors, consequences of transactions as well as diversities and similarities within groups are viewed. Throughout this course, we will explore how elements of the social structure construct categories of race, class, gender, sexuality, disability, and age have been transformed into systems of oppression and privilege. Appropriate theoretical frameworks and the interplay of social work values and ethics will be linked to these areas of focus.
