Brown Sociology Launches W.E.B. Du Bois, Race, and Racism Doctoral Certificate

The Department of Sociology is pleased to announce the launch of a new doctoral certificate program.

The W.E.B. Du Bois, Race, and Racism Doctoral Certificate is a flexibly structured program that offers graduate students at Brown University the opportunity to develop and amass a body of knowledge about the scholarly work of W.E.B. Du Bois (and other race scholars) and his efforts to systematically respond to the “race problem” and the “color line” in the United States and abroad. Moreover, the program is designed to enhance students’ understanding of the broad applicability of a Du Boisian lens across a variety of disciplines.

All Ph.D. students at Brown are eligible to apply.
