The university offers a minor in Women's Studies. Goals of the minor include helping students reinterpret concepts of gender and gendered identities in different social, cultural, and political contexts.
The Women's Studies Program is administered by the Director of Women's Studies. A minor consists of 18 hours of courses as approved by the director. Three of these courses must be Introduction to Women’s Studies (WS 2300), Feminist Thought and Theories (WS 4310), and Women’s Studies Seminar (WS 4399). Courses counted toward a major field of study will not count toward completion of the Women’s Studies minor. Courses without a WS prefix may be used toward completion of the minor at the discretion of the director. (see below)
