Women's Studies
The Women's Studies Program offers an interdisciplinary graduate certificate in women's studies. Students enrolled in any master's or doctoral program at the university may pursue this certificate by taking WS 500 (taken last) for a total of 20 credit hours. Two of the three courses must be outside your major field of study.
The following are some of the courses offered by departments and cross-listed under Women's Studies. Descriptions are listed under the various departments. Several departments offer additional graduate courses - for example, Colloquium on U.S. Women's History - that focus on women and gender and that may carry credit toward the graduate Women's Studies Certificate.
