Students in Gender, Race, and Identity study gender in historical and contemporary contexts with an emphasis on the intersections of gender, race, class, sexuality, ethnicity, and other social categories. Drawing on diverse academic disciplines, students will analyze the construction of gender roles, norms, and identities; gender and gendered power in global and local contexts, including in families, economies, social policies, and the arts; and key theories in studies of gender, race, ethnicity, and sexuality.
A major and a minor in Gender, Race, and Identity are offered.
