Overview

Women’s and Gender Studies explores how our lives are shaped by gender and other forms of identity, such as sexuality, race, ethnicity, class, nationality and geography. Students learn how to strive toward a more just and equitable society. Women’s and Gender Studies majors at Eastern Connecticut State University study politics, theory, literature, history, sociology and psychology, and graduate with a broad range of career opportunities.

Overview

The program offers a quality undergraduate education in gender scholarship. Students learn about the achievements and activism of women and other historically underrepresented groups as they consider how gender and other identities shape social experiences. Students think about social change in informed ways and are able to apply their acquired knowledge, analytical skills and competencies to their careers and everyday life. A minor in Women's and Gender Studies is also available.

Recent Eastern students who earned a bachelor’s degree in women’s and gender studies work at youth development agencies, women’s centers, and community wellness programs. They also work in information studies, academic settings, the legal field and in the media. A number of graduates are pursuing master’s degrees in women’s studies at Southern Connecticut State University.
