Women's Studies Program

Description:

The purposes of Women's Studies are to offer a contemporary as well as a historical perspective on women's contributions to selfhood, family, and society; to identify, critically examine, and evaluate the assumptions made about women by tradition; and to discover, acquire, and accumulate knowledge about women in order to empower understanding of their lives, their roles, and their humanity. Women's Studies balances traditional western perspectives, including those of minorities, the disabled, and the economically deprived.

Programs offered in Women's Studies are:
  • BA in Women's Studies
  • Women's Studies Minor
In addition to core courses in Women's Studies, these programs include elective courses in anthropology, child development and family relations, English, foreign languages, history, nursing, philosophy, psychology, sociology, and social work.
