妇女与性别研究文学士

妇女与性别研究是一个跨学科计划，该计划将性别和性作为社会构成和文化的历史可变组成部分进行研究。妇女与性别研究教会学生重新审视传统观念，从事新的研究，并为塑造美国和全球男女生活的日常实践提供批判性观点。它也认识到种族，阶级，种族，年龄，性别，能力和国籍是身份和经验的关键方面，这些被理解为社会生活的相交和有争议的特征，因此应加以研究。由于性别是人类体验的中心特征，并且因为该主题涉及大多数学科，因此女性和性别研究专业的学生可以通过使用各种方法来更深入地了解人类体验的复杂性和完整性。与教师和学生研究一样，在课堂上
The Department of Gender and Sexuality Studies offers an interdisciplinary curriculum that examines the formation of gender and its intersections with other relations of power, such as sexuality, race, ability, class, nationality, religion, locality, and age. The department encourages students to develop new theoretical approaches and to transform the analytical tools of many fields of study. Our courses and instructors pay particular attention to how lives are impacted by systemic inequalities. The goal of our scholarship, teaching, and activism is to make gender and sexuality central rather than peripheral terms of analysis. Our curriculum trains students to recognize the problems and possibilities of our current world and also empowers them to effect change.
