Welcome to the Childhood Studies
Program
at Rutgers-Camden
Childhood Studies is the theoretical and methodological
study of children and childhood within historical, interdisciplinary,
multi-cultural, and global contexts. The degree programs prepare
scholars capable of innovative interdisciplinary research in childhood
studies and leaders in child-related social practice and policy.

of the CS Department 

We aim to transform the study of children and representations
of them
1) through interdisciplinary dialogue and synergy, and
2) by placing children themselves at the center of
investigation, whether by listening to children’s own unique
experiences and voices or by creating appropriate methodological tools
for understanding their uniqueness.
