Holocaust, Genocide, and Human Rights Studies, Minor

The interdisciplinary Minor in Holocaust, Genocide, and Human Rights Studies (HGHR) consists of a minimum of 18 credit hours, including a 3-hour introductory course and 15 hours divided among subjects in Holocaust Studies and subjects in Genocide and Human Rights Studies.

HGHR 2100 (INTL 2100) / Intro to HGHR Studies is required, but is not a prerequisite for anything; and: it does not matter if you enroll in the HGHR or in the INTL section. Either way, it counts toward the Minor. Intro to HGHR Studies is offered every semester, and once (online) in the summer.

By late June we will post a list of all Fall 2024 classes that count toward the Minor. We usually offer 10-20 classes, drawn from a variety of departments (Women’s & Gender; Africana; History; Latin American Studies; Philosophy; as well as Global Studies).
