ILRGL 4842
Employment Discrimination and the Law

Course information provided by the 2025-2026 Catalog.

This course explores the role of law in prohibiting employment discrimination based on characteristics that include race, sex, gender, national origin, religion, age, and disability. This study will analyze the development of employment discrimination law toward greater inclusion, for example, expanding protection to include a socially-defined concept of gender rather than a biologically defined concept of sex. The course will also analyze the gaps that remain in providing broad and effective protection against discrimination in the workplace and the difficulties individuals and groups face in bringing legal claims.
