| Areas of Research within the Institute for African American Studies at UGA
UGA's Institute for African American Studies boasts a renowned faculty who have published scores of books and critical articles, earned numerous awards in research and teaching, and have proved themselves influential in African American studies and in their own areas of traditional scholarship. Working together as a team, the Director and faculty have more than doubled the appropriate courses and quadrupled the Institute core since 1992. Our scholars have moved the Langston Hughes Review from Brown University to Georgia and established The Womanist as a pioneering, acclaimed periodical. Black Issues in Higher Education has documented the importance of the Institute and represented UGA as a national example of academic diversity. The Institute, which directs research and learning in at least ten associated departments, is truly multidisciplinary.
