EDD 7207 - Promoting Inclusive Environments for Students in Higher Education

This course will encourage doctoral candidates to promote inclusivity in their institutions by surveying the issues and challenges related to various student populations in higher education. An emphasis will be placed on recent empirical and theoretical literature which attempts to make sense of different student experiences, especially those of racially and ethnically minoritized groups. Individual student experiences will be emphasized through a consideration of identity and diversity in the college environment. This literature is intended to help doctoral candidates question and reformulate the institutional systems, programs, curricula, and pedagogical approaches that impact student persistence and success.
