How to Concentrate in Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies in three easy steps:
1. Visit one of the program coordinators to get oriented in the program.
2. Take the two required courses when it is appropriate and fits into your schedule: WGSS 200, Introduction to Women, Gender, & Sexuality Studies and WGSS 400 Feminist Theory.
3. Take an additional 12 credits in Women, Gender, & Sexuality Studies from the list of WGSS courses.** You must take at least one course from three of the four perspectives: Theoretical, Historical, Cultural and Social. Of these twelve credits, six must be taken at the 300 or 400 level. Be aware that up to 3 credits of independent study can be arranged.
**Note! This third requirement is being revised, so that students will be able to take 12 credits in any field, instead of adhering to the four perspectives.
**Note! Two new courses have been added to the WGSS program: WGSS 430 (Internship in WGSS) and WGSS 469 (Readings in WGSS). Contact the coordinator for more information.
