BA in Women Studies in Hempstead United States | Hofstra University

The Women's Studies Program leverages faculty knowledge across humanities, social sciences, and arts to explore gender-related topics. Its curriculum offers interdisciplinary, cross-cultural examinations of gender dynamics, enabling students to analyze women's historical and contemporary impacts across social, political, economic, intellectual, and cultural spheres while studying evolving gender roles. The program enhances critical analysis, communication skills, and research proficiency. Students can combine women's studies with another major or customize their focus through specialized concentrations like women in literature, social science perspectives on gender, or artistic expressions of feminism. These focus areas often inform the subject of their culminating senior research project.
