The purpose of this requirement is to provide you with an introduction to the research, literature, and methodologies of the disciplines of ethnic studies and gender/women's studies from historical, cultural, social, and economic perspectives. Courses are taught by faculty committed to the four competencies listed below and are designed to give you a comprehensive understanding of the contributions to U.S. society made by cultural groups [African Americans, Asian Americans, Latino(a) Americans, Native Americans] women, and gays/lesbians (hereafter referred to as "groups").

Student Learning Outcomes

Upon completion of your Cultural Groups/Women requirement, you should have developed the following competencies:

1. knowledge of, and respect for, one or more of the groups and their contributions to U.S. society, including, but not limited to, three or more of the following aspects-historical, linguistic, cultural, economic, political, literary;
2. ability to analyze critically the relationships between the groups and the dominant society, between the groups themselves, and between members of the same group;
3. working knowledge of the groups' histories and contemporary experiences as subjects (as opposed to objects or victims) and of their voices and expressions, including, but not limited to, oral traditions, writings, and art forms;
4. comprehension of the origins and functions of discrimination, exploitation, and oppression of the groups, both historically and in the present, and ability to identify various patterns of discrimination.

Must complete two courses (8 quarter units) that collectively cover all three areas:

US-1.  American History

US-2.  The U.S. Constitution

US-3.  California State and Local Government

The "Code" requirements (US-1, 2, and 3) can be completed with one course from the First Category and one course from the Second Category as follows:

First Category Courses

• ES 1201 Ethnicity in American HIstory I
• HIST 1101 History of the United States to 1877
• HIST 3400  America to 1900
• HIST 3540
• POSC 1201  American Political Institutions
• POSC 3441  American Constitutional Law: Government
• POSC 3442  American Constitutional Law: Rights

Second Category Courses

• ES 1202  Ethnicity in American HIstory II

• HIST 3500  History of California
• POSC 1202  Public Policy/California Politics

Transfer students who partially completed the Code requirement before entering CSUEB should go see an advisor to confirm which course(s) to take to complete the requirement.  

Official examinations to fulfill US-1, US-2, and US-3 may be taken through the Testing Office.  The College Level Examination Program (CLEP) offers History of the U.S. I and History of the U.S. II which meets US-1 and American Government which meets US-2.  The Code Exam on California State & Local Government  meets US-3.  

Students may fulfill the U.S. History and U.S. Constitution requirements with a score of 3 or above on the Advanced Placement test in U.S. History or with a score of 3 or above on the Advanced Placement test in American Government and Politics. These students still need to complete the California state and local government requirement with a Second Category course or the appropriate Code Exam.
