Why Study Gender?

We are excited that you'd like to learn more about Gender Studies! So, why Gender Studies you ask? 

Gender Studies offers interdisciplinary courses that explore the making and meaning of gender - femininity and masculinity - across cultures and social formations, past and present. 

Gender influences human options, conditions, and experiences. Legal, political, economic, cultural and kinship systems are all profoundly gendered. Deep understanding of gender patterns, dynamics and biases can enhance the accuracy and scope of work in many fields. Gender awareness benefits individuals, communities and organizations. 

Our professors are collectively engaged in original, cutting-edge research which they often discuss in class. This makes any course you take well worth it.
