The major in women’s, gender, and sexuality studies explores gender and sexuality in all areas of life – political, cultural, economic and bodily dimensions. Through interdisciplinary courses, students examine how gender, race, class, sexualities, and abilities shape personal identities, beliefs, opportunities, and behaviors. They also explore multiple dimensions of power in courses on black feminist theories, transnational feminisms, and feminist histories, literature and the arts. The department is committed to critical views and ideas that encourage possibilities for transformation and change.
