Program Overview

The Department of Women and Gender Studies works to make the diversity of women’s and gendered perspectives visible and to promote student success within an academic, professional, and personal context. The major curriculum seeks to provide students with the occasion to investigate the intersections of sex, gender, race, ethnicity, class, age, sexuality, and ability as dimensions of social identity, and as considered at local, national, and transnational levels.

This interdisciplinary major offers students a well-rounded undergraduate education leading to expertise in a wide variety of skills that prepare students for career and graduate school success. Students have an opportunity to understand themselves and their society within an inclusive view of the human experience.

Recent Women and Gender Studies graduates have gone on to highly competitive masters and doctorate programs in law, sociology, gender studies, history, social work, communications, public health, and English at nationally recognized research universities. Graduates stepping into the workforce have assumed careers as crisis counselors, government officials, librarians, human rights activists, and Peace Corps/AmeriCorps volunteers.

Student Learning Outcomes:

Upon completion of the program, students will be able to:

  • Describe why centering anti-racist and decolonizing work is essential to effective social justice work and feminist thinking.
  • Explain how patriarchy and other sex/gender systems of power intersect with other systems of power.
  • Theorize ways in which bodies and social identities are culturally and historically constructed and shaped.
  • Identify and critically evaluate research and scholarly arguments within the field of Women and Gender Studies.
  • Identify and analyze language, media representation, and dominant forms of communication to produce an original argument about how power and privilege operate in society.
  • Apply collaborative strategies and knowledge of Women and Gender to imagine and create transformative feminist futures.
