BA in Interdisciplinary Studies in Sexuality in Montreal Canada | Concordia University

Sexuality significantly influences societal structures, impacting personal identity formation and interpersonal connections. As perspectives on sexuality continue to evolve and be challenged, an interdisciplinary academic framework provides essential grounding while exploring the nuanced, often conflicting interpretations of sexuality throughout history and in contemporary global contexts.

Key study areas encompass LGBTQIA+, heterosexual, pansexual, and various relationship structures (monogamous, non-monogamous, polyamorous), examined through lenses of feminism, gender, race, class, politics, and culture. The curriculum emphasizes Indigenous, Black, racialized, migrant, diasporic, transnational, decolonial, postcolonial, disability, and other critical perspectives. Students transcend conventional academic boundaries by examining sexuality through diverse fields including visual arts, media studies, life sciences, religious studies, and social sciences.

Montreal's vibrant diversity offers major program students practical learning opportunities through community placements, enabling direct engagement with arts organizations, public health initiatives, and social justice movements.
