The program bridges many disciplines as it focuses on the various expressions of American society contained in its history, art, and literature. Through an analysis of its political and social development, students gain insights into the national dynamic; and through inquiry and debate of an ethical standard, students gain a perspective to evaluate the nation&#8217;s actions and beliefs.<\/p>\n<p>Students majoring in American Studies receive a solid grounding in American culture in history to better understand its evolution; in political structure to better recognize the forces and instruments of change; in literature to experience American society from varied perspectives; and in the pluralism of our society, with particular attention to race, gender, and ethnicity. Course clusters and sequences exist in women&#8217;s studies, African American studies, international outlooks, and social pluralism. At the upper level, students encounter course work relating to each of the following themes: America&#8217;s role in the world, American regionalism, American thought and values, and American artistic expression. Inherent in the American Studies major is the recognition of the nation&#8217;s developing response to the challenges and opportunities of an ever-expanding global commitment.<\/p>\n<p>It is apparent, therefore, that American Studies graduates, having gained appreciation and comprehension of the changing global context, will enjoy increasing career choices as the demand for Americanists grows. Additionally, the major&#8217;s liberal arts emphasis on thinking, analyzing, evaluating, and communicating provides excellent preparation for both career entry and graduate study. American Studies graduates find employment in a wide variety of fields, including education, communications, publishing, and historic preservation, as well as in museums and archives. Advanced degrees are most often pursued in law, business, museum studies and American studies.<\/p>\n<p>The American Studies major leads to the B.A. degree, and is offered through the School of American and International Studies.<\/p>\n<p>A minor is not available.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"collapsableContent\" tabindex=\"0\" type=\"button\"><div class=\"collapsableTitle\">Requirements of the Major<\/div>\n<ol start=\"1\" type=\"1\">\n<li>Transfer students who have 48 or more credits accepted at the time of transfer are waived from the courses marked with a <strong><strong>(W)<\/strong> <\/strong> below.\u00a0 Waivers only apply to General Education Requirements NOT School Core or Major Requirements.<\/li>\n<li>Double counting between General Education, School Core, and Major may be possible.\u00a0 Check with your advisor to see if any apply.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div class=\"courseTable\">\n<ul>\n<li class=\"majorTableHeading\">Subject &amp; Course # &#8211; Title &amp; Course Description<\/li>\n<li class=\"majorTableSubHeading\">GENERAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS<\/li>\n<li><a id=\"6a0e5729bb420\" href=\"https:\/\/catalog.ramapo.edu\/courses\/ENGL180\" target=\"_blank\">ENGL 180 -
