Course information provided by the 2025-2026 Catalog.
This course will demonstrate how injustice and inequity are rooted in historical, geographical, structural, social, and psychological forces and contemplate ways in which society can move forward to improve the quality of human experience. These phenomena are manifested along the dimensions of housing, education, health, income/wealth, transportation and recreation as well as in the personal activities of daily living. The ecology of injustice and inequity will be examined through an interdisciplinary lens, stretching across the disciplines and majors of the College of Human Ecology: human development/psychology, design and nutrition. In this course, students will explore the ways in which racism and intersecting systems of structural oppression impact people's ability to thrive using design, social science and natural science approaches.
