Courses
The Department of Global Gender Studies offers students a wide variety of classes that explores issues of women, gender and feminism. Our faculty work together to provide a stimulating intellectual environment that examines the changing roles and relationships of women and men, the gendered impact of political, economic and cultural globalization, and the embedded power of gendered institutions. At the undergraduate level, our courses are groups in three concentrations: Cultures and Identities, Women and Global Citizenship, and Gender and Public Policy. The courses within each concentration recognize developing trends in studies of gender in Asia, the Caribbean, Latin America, Europe and the United States. At both the graduate and undergraduate level, our objective is to inspire critical thinking in our students, challenging them to integrate local and global knowledge, and to develop the capacity to link gender and history, literature and policy, and theory and practice.
