Overview

Combine challenging courses, accomplished accessible faculty, opportunities to get involved in creating significant events and individually designed internships and research projects.

Explore how institutions and social practices construct gender inequalities in the world. Examine how people respond to promote greater justice and human rights. Investigate systems of power using intersectional analysis — identify how race, class, sexuality and other dimensions of difference shape gender dynamics and gender violence. Apply critical thinking, including media analysis, to examine your own identity, relationships and experiences.
