Women's Studies is an interdisciplinary, cross-cultural and transnational discipline rooted in feminist theory and shaped by the social sciences, humanities and natural sciences, as well as movements for social justice. It places women's lives at the center of its attention, examining the experience of women through the lens of gender, and attending to ways gender intersects with other social categories such as race, class, nationality/ethnicity and sexuality. Women's Studies challenge patriarchal norms that subordinate women in many spheres of endeavor. Feminist scholarship and teaching provides students with effective tools to dialogue across difference, restructure knowledge, and participate in the process of social change. The program cultivates skills in writing, research and presentation, and provides opportunities to engage in feminist activism locally, nationally and internationally through travel/study, community-based service learning, and internships with various organizations. Career Opportunities: As with any Liberal Arts Degree, Women's Studies provide a well-rounded education that can be useful in any job. A Women's Studies degree also provides an excellent foundation for further graduate work in professional degree programs such as counseling, social work, law, and public health. A degree in Women's Studies will enhance student's ability to participate professionally in a range of organizations and businesses in the public and private sector, particularly those addressing women's issues. Women's Studies not only provide an excellent Liberal Arts education that improves one's skills in writing and discussions, but it also prepares the student to work with diverse populations and be aware of the forces of privilege and oppression.
