CCSRE Honors Seminar

This Honors Thesis Seminar is a research- and writing-intensive course designed to help students reflect on CCSRE coursework and to apply their skills, knowledge, and political commitments to the investigation of a focused research question. Comparative Studies of Race and Ethnicity at Stanford - and the field of ethnic studies broadly - has always worked to ground academic research in political practice, embodied experience, and community, and it systematically challenges disciplinary boundaries in the academy. Our weekly meetings and assignments are designed to scaffold your ongoing work with a faculty advisor and to facilitate our coming together as a community of writers, researchers, artists, and activists. Together, we will build a trusting, supportive community of scholars and work to gain clarity about the stakes of our methodologies and research projects.
