Women’s and Gender Studies, Undergraduate Minor

About the Women’s and Gender Studies Undergraduate Minor

The Women’s and Gender Studies Program is an interdisciplinary, all-campus program administered by the Director of Women’s and Gender Studies.

The university offers a minor in Women’s and Gender Studies (WGS). Women’s and gender studies minors will learn to critically examine gender, ethnicity/race, sexuality, class, and other social identities. A minor consists of 18 hours of courses as approved by the director. The minor includes two required courses: WGS 2300  and one of the following courses: WGS 4310  or WGS 4399 . WGS minors can opt to enroll in research, teaching, and/or community practicums (WGS 4000 ). Many courses with and without a WGS prefix may be used to complete the minor, with the approval of the director.
