Emphasis in Critical Studies in Curriculum & Pedagogy
Critical Studies in Curriculum and Pedagogy (CSCP) is an Emphasis in the C&P program for MA, MEd and PhD students who are admitted into the program.
The CSCP Emphasis encourages a critical exploration of educational phenomena, within and beyond the scope of schools. CSCP courses focus on social justice issues in education, including those related to: environmental justice, globalization, colonialism, race, disability, gender, sexuality, cultural and linguistic difference.
How to Participate in the Critical Studies in Curriculum and Pedagogy Emphasis

If you are a student in the Curriculum & Pedagogy program (C&P) in CTL you are eligible to have a C&P program Emphasis by simply completing three or more courses from the Emphasis course list.
