The tabs on the left are links to the courses I took on my Disability Studies journey. Each one includes a course description, an assignment or two and my refelection on that course. These a just snapshots that I hope will engage you the reader in thought and discussion.

The cumulative effect of the information found on this page, should help fulfill the goals of the Disabiity Studies Program as listed below.

Disability Studies Program Goals

Our overarching goal is to enable students to become reflective, knowledgeable and flexible professionals, researchers or educators in their chosen disability-related field.

Upon completion of the program, students will be able to exhibit their competence in these areas:

• Research skills for ongoing learning and writing in disability studies;
• Dedication to improvement in quality of life and justice for people with disabilities;
• Knowledge of disability experience, individual and social;
• Familiarity with disability and the arts and/or creativity in disability culture;
• Ability to demonstrate their application of knowledge in disability-related practice.
