Gender has an impact on nearly every aspect of life and plays a role in today’s crucial discussions. Our interdisciplinary courses encourage you to examine complex constructions of gender throughout history, in different cultural arenas, and in varying global processes so you can contribute to the conversation.

A student with a minor in Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies will be able to:

• Describe differing assumptions about gender and sexuality and the effect on the individual and society.
• Assess gender and sexuality issues from an interdisciplinary perspective.
• Apply understandings of gender and sexuality to the major field of study.
• Utilize knowledge of gender and sexuality to participate in civic and community decision-making.
