Feminist and Gender Theory

Catalog description

Prerequisites: Graduate standing. This class serves as an intellectual investigation into gendered ideologies (such as the effects of race, ethnicity, nationality, socioeconomic class, sexuality, and religion) and functions as a bridge to later advanced gender theory and methods courses. Topics may also include interdisciplinary feminist theories (with a focus on gender equality), including masculinity theory, queer theory, muted group theory, and other evolving frameworks. Students may not receive credit for both GS 4100 / SOC 4100 and GS 5100 .
