The Women's Studies Program introduces students to an
interdisciplinary framework with the lives and
experiences of women as its focus. Students learn to
analyze and assess the impact of the multiple layers
of identity women juggle--for example
gender, ethnicity, class, disabilities,
and sexual orientation-as they study the
fields of human history, creativity,
economics, society, and social sciences.
As statistics continue to show more
women pursuing higher education and more women in the workforce,
this program prepares students to negotiate
conflicts in the workplace and in their personal
lives.
Women's Studies students learn to understand the
impact of gender, ethnicity, and class on their lives,
and the lives of people in the past. Synthesizing the
subject of women's lives with skills in critical
thinking, the program seeks to create active and
informed citizens, workers, and parents, guardians, or
stewards of children. |
