About Us Contact Us Home Disability Studies ... Information Services Disability Studies Disability Studies is a relatively new, interdisciplinary field focused on the social and cultural context of disability. Often compared to womens studies, African American, or Chicano studies, this field considers disability as a social minority group with an emphasis on the way in which disability is constructed culturally, politically, and economically, rather than the traditional emphasis on the physiology of impairment. This is a social constructivist view, a model that says people with disabilities are first, and foremost, people (not body parts, not problems to be solved, not objects, and not pathetic) with the same rights and responsibilities as everyone else. This model supports the viewpoints, ideas, and experiences of the people who get up everyday and deal with their disability in this culture as the experts. Although definitions of Disability Studies differ, they each have several elements in common: Philosophy Disability Studies is generally grounded in an empowerment model of disability, or a social constructivist view. The point of most Disability Studies courses is to deconstruct what is assumed, to make way for new ideas, new voices, and new views.

Administrative Offices Disability Studies Health Professions Scholars Program Disability Studies Youth Studies Consortium Policy Briefs Disability Studies Disability Studies is a multi-disciplinary academic field which promotes a "person-centered" approach to the study of disability, incorporating overlapping perspectives from the social sciences, humanities, science, social policy and the law.  As distinct from the prevailing medical model of disability, the social construction model utilized by Disability Studies asserts that disability is not inherent in the individual as a deficit, but rather, is a set of physical and social barriers that often constrain people. This strength-based approach supports a paradigm in which disability is regarded as a basic aspect of human experience. CUNY’s School of Professional Studies offers Disability Studies programs through undergraduate courses , a Graduate Certificate in Disability Studies , and a Master of Arts in Disability Studies .  The Office of the University Dean helped to implement this new 30-credit master’s degree which launched in spring 2009 as the first stand-alone M.A. in Disability Studies in the country.  The Office’s JFK, Jr. Institute supports Disability Studies through various initiatives such as a
