Alongside the Master of Arts program, the Department of Gender and Race Studies provides a Graduate Certificate for non-departmental students looking to gain interdisciplinary knowledge in women's and gender studies. This certificate addresses the requirement many graduate students face to pursue a secondary specialization outside their primary field. Designed to complement any master's or doctoral program, it enables students to create personalized academic and research pathways. Participants gain foundational understanding of Women's Studies while cultivating specialized knowledge through tailored coursework.
Research focusing on women and gender has grown substantially across academic disciplines and professional organizations. Developing proficiency in this sought-after specialization makes graduates more competitive in today's employment landscape.
