Overview

WGS is an interdisciplinary exploration through which students examine the social construction of gender and sexuality as well as the material impact of those constructions on the lived experiences of individuals. We offer historical, contemporary, and transnational analyses of gender, power, oppression, and resistance.

What will you learn

Employing a comparative approach, students explore how gender intersects with issues of nation, geographical location, histories of colonialism, culture, religion, sexuality, class, and race.

The Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies program from Goucher College focuses on the nuanced historical processes through which individuals and communities live out gender and sexuality; the set of institutional and ideological practices that shape them; and the concrete processes and political moments through which inequities are transformed.
