The world of work has, throughout history, been as controversial as it is crucially
important in most people’s lives. Labor Studies is an interdisciplinary program
designed to offer students a broad background in the multiple perspectives on
and different analytical approaches to labor issues in an international context.
The program coordinates courses from departments throughout the university, and
includes opportunities for independent course work and internships with business
firms, nonprofit agencies, and labor unions. It prepares students for graduate
programs in labor and industrial relations and in related areas of business, education,
law, public administration, and the social sciences, as well as for a wide range
of careers in business, government, law, teaching, and labor unions.
