The program combines feminist theory courses with empirical studies on women, gender, and sexuality across global and U.S. contexts, requiring students to complete four policy courses through GW's Trachtenberg School of Public Policy and Public Administration. This interdisciplinary approach equips students to critically examine power systems and policies, with special attention to how they intersect with gender, race, sexuality, ethnicity, and national identity.
Alumni leverage their expertise in diverse fields including government roles, education, research, lobbying, public affairs, and advocacy work. About 30% of graduates pursue advanced degrees, with program credits transferable toward a PhD in Public Policy and Public Administration.
