One of the most exciting things about college is the opportunity to meet and work with people from so many different backgrounds and walks of life. Cultures and Communities operates around the premise that learning to work across differences of cultural background and experience is a process essential to intellectual growth and lifelong learning, and ultimately to building a better world. The Cultures and Communities (CC) undergraduate certificate program promotes such experiences through its unique array of interdisciplinary classes, collaborative projects, and community-based learning.
The Certificate provides students with a thorough understanding of the social construction of cultural identities and their relationship to history, society, politics, and economics. Students explore the multicultural construction of America and examine the community and culture of art, sexuality, gender, race, health, ethics, religion, and technology. The certificate is valuable and applicable in any career that involves working with people - which is almost everything.
As part of the requirements for the certificate, students complete a service learning component where they work in the community, tying their classroom learning to real world experiences. And, because so many of these classes also count as general education requirements, many students find it quite seamless to add the certificate into their education plan.
Eligibility
The Cultures and Communities Certificate is open to all degree-seeking undergraduates at UWM to complement the student's major. All students are required to complete an exit survey before the certificate is awarded.
Requirements
Students must complete at least 3 credits in each of the areas below, including one course with a service learning component. All students are required to complete an exit survey before the certificate is awarded.
The following list of courses approved for the CC certificate indicates which requirement of the certificate is fulfilled by each course and how each course counts toward the University General Education Requirements. L&S students who wish to have their CC courses count toward their Letters and Science breadth requirements must select L&S courses. A single course may satisfy only one area. For the most up-to-date list, contact the Cultures and Communities Program office.
