Tucson Center
Our Center is focused on weaving elementary, secondary, and higher education into an all-inclusive model.
Providing Opportunities to Study, Teach and Organize in Southern Arizona
Prescott College’s Tucson Center serves as a hub for both academic and community-based collaborative projects through student projects, the Center for Nature and Place, and Arizona Serve internships. Partners include various K-12 schools in Southern Arizona, as well as other environmental and social justice organizations. The center houses several key functions facilitated by staff and faculty roles.
Prescott College Tucson Center serves as a hub for field work in courses and programs including the Master of Arts in Social Justice & Community Organizing (SJCO), Social Justice Studies, Border Studies, Education, Environmental Justice and Interdisciplinary Studies.
Tucson Center faculty and staff offer students in southern Arizona academic advising, Prescott College courses, admissions support and opportunities for networking with fellow students and community organizations. Undergraduate and graduate courses are held at the center both for the on campus and online programs with the opportunity to engage in fieldwork across southern Arizona and along the U.S.-Mexico border.
Course Offerings
Many of the course offerings and opportunities at the Prescott College Tucson Center are centered on social, racial, and environmental justice, focused on themes of decolonizing and reindigenizing education, urban environmental justice, indigenous liberation, Ethnic Studies, border studies, youth organizing, and immigration justice. In our current historical moment of a rapidly changing social, political, and environmental landscape, learning the skills needed to join forces and create change in our communities and the world is especially crucial.
