Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Program
Welcome to the Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Program
Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies is a bi-campus multidisciplinary program with a profound social justice goal: to understand how gender and sexuality shape our culture, daily lives, social institutions, and interactions.
Our program brings together over 50 faculty from from 13 departments and programs across both campuses, professors whose research and teaching focus on women, gender, and/or sexuality. In addition to offering dozens of courses across the social sciences and humanities, the program serves as an intellectual center for faculty and students.
Our faculty are central in bringing cross-disciplinary perspectives on women, gender, and sexuality both to the University community and to a wider public through our course offerings as well as by sponsoring conferences, lectures, movie screenings, performances, and other events.
