women's studies

The Women's Studies minor introduces students to the study of women and their experiences from an interdisciplinary, critical, women-centered perspective. Theoretical developments in feminist scholarship and methodology will be addressed and the relevance of theory for feminist activism will be investigated. This specialization will support students who intend to pursue women's studies in graduate school. Students must choose courses from at least two disciplines.
