Minor Information

Disability Studies gives students tools to analyze how societies and individuals grapple with physical and mental differences and explores how disability is embedded in culture and shaped by stigma and social power.

Drawing from rich offerings in disciplines as varied as anthropology, bioethics, English, health systems administration, nursing, philosophy, psychology, theater and performance studies, theology, and women’s and gender studies, the minor in disability studies will enable students to explore this critical facet of human diversity in an in-depth fashion as it relates to their major field of study and to their professional aspirations.

Information about Minor Requirements and the Minor Interest Form can be found in the navigation drop-down bar (mobile) or sidebar (desktop). If you have questions, email the Disability Studies Program at disabilitystudies@georgetown.edu.
