Understanding the gendered dynamics of the world and workforce gives students a competitive edge in meeting the challenges of the contemporary world.

Women’s Studies helps students prepare for the professional world in a number of ways. As an interdisciplinary program, Women’s Studies exposes students to a number of different schools of thought, theories, and methodologies. Students who major in Women’s Studies go on to a variety of careers in the arts, business, social services, community organizing, and government agencies.
