Gender Studies
EXPLORE GENDERED EXPERIENCES FROM A VARIETY OF PERSPECTIVES
Learn to re-vision societal patterns, especially those leading to prejudice, and explore new frameworks from which to analyze contemporary issues. The Gender Studies minor is designed to add value to any major—helping you meet personal and career goals through interdisciplinary study emphasizing critical thinking and social consciousness. Knowledge of cultural and gender diversity is crucial to students looking for careers in human services, health and wellness professions, national and international business, and human resources.
