Employment Discrimination Law

Employment Discrimination Law studies the history, doctrine, and practice of law outlawing discrimination in the workplace based on race, color, national origin, sex, religion, age, disability, sexual orientation, and membership in other protected classifications.

Although the course focuses on California's Fair Employment and Housing Act, together with Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, it also covers the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Civil Rights Act of 1991, and other federal and state anti-discrimination statutes.
