As activists, researchers, or workers, women have driven transformative societal shifts. The Women & Gender Studies program enables you to understand these transformations while equipping you to help build an equitable society. Through feminist frameworks and investigative approaches, this field analyzes the past and present circumstances of all genders. Our department collaborates with dynamic academic and activist communities both on and off campus to address diverse topics.
Students in this program gain deeper insights into women's lived experiences, physical autonomy, work contributions, and intellectual achievements. You'll also investigate feminism's global impact as a powerful sociopolitical force that has reshaped everyday realities for people of all genders.
We invite students from all disciplines to take women and gender studies courses, which offer valuable viewpoints relevant to any academic focus. These classes foster comprehensive awareness of how gender, race, class, age, ability, ethnicity, and sexuality shape both historical developments and contemporary systems.
