Disability Studies Minor at Stockton University

Disability Studies (DS) is an interdisciplinary field of study that examines the meaning, nature, and consequences of disability, as a social, cultural and political construct. In contrast to educational, clinical, medical, or therapeutic perspectives on disability, DS focuses on how disability is defined and represented in society. To learn more about this minor at Stockton, please see the DS program's webpage.
