Women's
Studies Minor
Students can
pursue an 18-hour minor, providing them with 15 hours of
courses and a 3-hour capstone seminar in Women's Studies. The
capstone seminar surveys feminist research methods and gives
students the opportunity to design a research project of their
choice. The Introduction to Women's Studies serves as a
foundation course to frame students' experience for
subsequent courses.
Vision
Statement
The Women's Studies Program aspires to teaching, scholarship
and activism that inspires excellent writing, effective
speaking, critical thinking, and the ability to use gender and
sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, class, and physical and
mental ability as categories of analysis in personal, local,
national, and international contexts.
