Overview

In the past 30 years, scholars in many fields have recovered lost works and have provided new perspectives on the diversity of women's experiences and accomplishments, thereby transforming and expanding traditional curricula.

At the University of Georgia, Women's and Gender Studies courses are taught by nine faculty members with joint appointments in the Women's and Gender Studies Program and six other departments, and by other faculty from cooperating departments in several schools and colleges.

Key Features

Majoring in women’s and gender studies can enhance a student’s career preparation by increasing the understanding of social diversity, giving students an international and interdisciplinary perspective, equipping students with critical and analytical skills, and providing a background and understanding of women and the role they play in the public and private sectors.
