Disability Studies at Syracuse University applies social, cultural, historical, and philosophical perspectives to disability in society. Building on the proud tradition of Syracuse University's School of Education with faculty from across campus, the program is designed to help students understand disability and to prepare them to work to overcome barriers to full participation of all people in society. The Disability Studies program focuses on disability as social phenomenon, social construct, metaphor, identity, and culture. Consistent with the Syracuse tradition, this program stands at the forefront of the development of the theoretical, research, educational, and advocacy models necessary to remove the legal, physical, policy, and attitudinal barriers that exclude people with disabilities from society. The Certificate of Advanced Study (CAS) program includes 15 semester-hours of graduate courses in Disability Studies and related areas. The CAS program is ideally suited for students who want to demonstrate that they can teach, conduct research, or work in the area of disability studies, along with other fields in which they are studying or have studied (e.g., special education, rehabilitation counseling, law, the social sciences).
