Overview
This Ethnic Studies phd programme is offered at the University Kebangsaan Malaysia.
Features
- KITA is the only full-fledged research institute in Malaysia focusing specifically on ‘ethnic studies.’
- Although academically, KITA has a ‘thematic studies’ orientation, it, however, draws its strength from both ‘disciplinary studies’ as well as ‘area studies,’ thus encouraging cross-disciplinary activities, involving three major sectors of the society, namely, the public, the private, and the community sectors.
Programme Structure
Curriculum:
- It is well-known that, globally, ethnic studies have emerged mostly from traumatic and even turbulent, violent circumstances.
- However, in Malaysia’s case, the frequently asked question is “how is it that she has been able to sustain, comparatively and relatively, stable and harmonious inter-ethnic relations?”. The pursuit of some credible answers for such questions motivates the establishment of KITA.
