Students on a trip to Ghana 

Our Students Explore the World

About the Department

Majoring in African American Studies at Brockport offers you a broader understanding of our world. Our courses explore African, African American and Caribbean presence in the world and relate it to the issues of the day. Our committed faculty works to ensure our students will emerge culturally and socially aware of the important issues which affect North and South, industrialized and developing countries, wealthy and impoverished nations.  Through our partnership with the University of Ghana at Legon, students can experience the unique challenges of Africa in person. A degree in AAS from Brockport will prepare you to be fully engaged with our diverse planet.
