The interdisciplinary Women’s and Gender Studies Minor is designed for students who wish to study how gender, as it intersects with other identities, influences everyday life; special consideration is given to the study of women’s perspecitives. Fifteen hours of course work is required, with at least 9 hours of upper-division credit. A grade of C or better is required in all courses. Students should register for cross-listed courses under the WGST course heading.
Before graduation, a student minoring in Women’s and Gender Studies will submit a portfolio for review to the Women’s and Gender Studies Program Committee. The portfolio must contain work from three different disciplines and a reflective essay that reflects the student’s mastery of Women’s and Gender Studies learning outcomes; it may also contain a project undertaken outside of a Women’s and Gender Studies class. The student will also participate in an exit interview.
Courses taken to satisfy Core Areas A through E may not be counted as coursework in the minor.
