Overview

Students in particular, have been the central conscience of our educational institutions, drawing our attention to critical issues such as campus policing, the need for Ethnic Studies and anti-racist curricula, and community and campus racial violence, to name a few. Through the Educating for Critical Race Theory (E-CRiT) concentration at University of Washington Bothell we intend to honor and learn from this tradition.

This concentration is designed to prepare individuals to identify and confront the preservation and intersection of settler colonialism and white supremacist structures. It provides critical and applied tools aimed at challenging systemic racism, while centering student voice to strengthen culturally responsive and sustaining approaches that transform higher education.

Concentration Goals:

Provide an applied, multidisciplinary foundation in critical race theory as it relates to higher education and higher education adjacent industries and institutions.
Foster an anti-racist, decolonial, and practice-focused community for UW graduate students and faculty, as well as for local, regional, national, and global higher education practitioners.
Prepare and empower educators to disrupt and transform racially hostile higher education environments, in relation to the localized needs of Indigenous, Black, and minoritized communities.
