Hi Everyone,
Check out this great opportunity sponsored by the NYU Center for Multicultural Education and Programs (CMEP)!
Application deadline is Sunday, January 22nd.
The Intergroup Dialogue (IGD) Program is a nationally recognized 1-credit undergraduate course that brings together small groups of students from diverse backgrounds to share their experiences and gain new knowledge related to diversity and social justice. Trained graduate students co-facilitate each course section. Past section topics included the following: Race, Gender and Sexual Orientation, Faith and Sexual Orientation, Disability, and Race: Bi/Multicultural Identities.
The IGD Program is housed in the Center for Multicultural Education and Programs, and the course is housed in the Silver School of Social Work. The IGD model focuses specifically on intergroup dynamics within the context of an institution of higher education while promoting awareness and change in intergroup relations at the individual, cultural, institutional levels. The guiding assumption is that diversity is an institutional asset and can be used to enhance growth of the NYU community while also achieving specific educational outcomes.
The course is 10 weeks long and meets on Fridays from February 3 through April 12 (no class on March 10 & 17, the Fridays before and during Spring Break). The course time is typically from 2-4 PM.
Access the IGD application for undergraduate students here.
