Women's and Gender Studies

The Women’s and Gender Studies Program is a cross-disciplinary program in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. The program invites students to examine gender across time, place, culture, and academic disciplines. WGS courses provide students with an understanding of women’s history, gender theories, and social structures. Students learn through research, discussion, and application that interrelated factors — e.g., race, ethnicity, class, age, disability, gender identity, religion, national origin, and sexual orientation — inform their understanding of women’s history, culture, and social roles.
