Although a significant amount of research has been conducted on racial microaggressions, few research studies have investigated religious microaggressions. None of the studies on religious microaggressions have examined the experiences of graduate Muslim students at an institution of higher education. A qualitative design that used individual interviews was followed to collect data from 16 participants from different countries with different immigration statuses. Themes from studies by Nadal et al. (2010, 2012) about religious microaggressions and microaggressions against Muslims were used to analyze the data. The findings indicate that all participants had experienced religious microaggressions in one way or another. Impacts and coping strategies were detected as well. While some of the findings aligned with Nadal et al.’s (2010, 2012) themes, others were identified as new themes. These included infrastructural microaggressions, and microaggressions resulting from institutional interactions. Based on the findings, recommendations are provided for institutions of higher education that promote diversity and inclusion. 2019-06-04 English text Ohio University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ohiou1554150264316075 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ohiou1554150264316075 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
