Undergraduate Courses

The undergraduate program in Women's and Gender Studies enables students to construct an interdisciplinary major focusing on feminist scholarship, debates and issues and the study of women, gender and sexualities.

The Level 1 core course WOMS1001: Introduction to Feminism, convened by the Coordinator/s is designed to introduce students to some central preoccupations of feminist theorizing from a range of perspectives and positions. Other Level 1 and Upper Level courses are taught and administered through different Schools in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences and offer a range of disciplinary and interdisciplinary approaches.
