About Graduate Courses

In the creation of new knowledge, Women's Studies builds connections to the social and political environment outside the university and prepares students to pursue doctoral or professional degrees or to find careers in government and public policy, non-profit and social justice organizations, educational institutions, and a range of human resource positions in private industry and the arts.

Our graduate courses ensure that M.A. students receive an interdisciplinary education that integrates the arts and humanities with the social sciences, bridges theory and practice, and focuses on the intersections of gender, race, class, sexuality, and nationality in all areas of research.
