Welcome to Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies -

WGSS courses emphasize theoretical and methodological approaches to understanding and examining how gender, sexuality, race, culture, and related factors contribute to the diverse economic, political, social, and cultural institutions that shape people's lives both in the U.S. and globally. Our curriculum reflects our core commitment to cutting-edge feminist and queer scholarship, pedagogy, and activism.

Students may complete a Major in Women's Studies or choose to Minor in Women's Studies or a Minor in Sexuality, Gender, and Queer Studies. The knowledge that our students encounter and produce in WGSS courses, practicum placements, internships, and capstone courses will provide a foundation for lifelong learning while positioning them for careers in teaching, counseling, social work, business, law, politics, health sciences, public administration, public relations, and research.

After investigating our new website to learn about WGSS courses, faculty, staff, and students, please drop by our offices in Neuberger Hall between 9am and 5pm, Monday-Friday. The faculty, staff, and students of WGSS look forward to meeting you and helping you to experience how WGSS can prepare you to change the world.
