Women's and Gender Studies University of Windsor

Program Description

The breadth and depth of Women’s and Gender Studies will amaze you. A deep understanding of women and gender is at the heart of the program, but this is not its boundary. Women’s and Gender Studies is concerned with equality and social justice in the broadest sense. Our goal is to help you “find your voice”. We prepare you to act on what you learn and encourage you to work with others to make a better world. Women’s and Gender Studies courses look below the surface of things. We question everyday assumptions and challenge you to think differently about yourself and the world. Whether you choose Women’s and Gender Studies on its own or with another program, what you learn will be valuable in workplaces where there is a need for employees who are knowledgeable and responsive to issues of equality, inclusion, and diversity. Double majors with Psychology, English, History, Sociology, and Criminology are popular, as is our unique Bachelor of Social Work in Social Work and Women’s Studies.
