Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies (BA)
Integrating first-hand research and scholarship related to issues of gender, the Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies program is based on the principles of social justice established by the founding organization of Webster University, the Sisters of Loretto. This is an interdisciplinary program that takes an intersectional, transnational, feminist approach to the study of women, gender and sexuality. The program investigates how assumptions about gender and sexuality inform social, cultural and political practices that both reproduce and resist hierarchies of power. Courses examine the intersections of gender and sexuality with other significant categories and identities, such as race, ethnicity, class, age, religion, ability, nationality, immigrant status and body size. Through a student-centered approach, faculty inspire students to engage with local, national and international communities to effect social justice.
