Ethnic and Gender Studies Programs in California

Ethnic and Gender Studies examines how identity, culture, and power shape communities. Programs are small, so college-level earnings figures rarely publish; graduates move into nonprofits, education, public service, and graduate programs.

Programs below are ranked only when a college figure rests on at least 100 graduates. Programs on 30 to 99 graduates carry a small-program flag and are listed, not ranked. Anything smaller shows the national median for the major, badged as such.
