女权主义研究是一个跨学科领域，产生前沿研究并促进创新教学。女权主义研究的主题不仅仅是妇女：研究和教学关注的是性别关系，与种族，阶级，种族，性别，性，民族，能力和其他差异相交的方式如何影响社会的各个方面。女权研究系有十个核心和50名附属教职员工，提供多方面的课程，邀请学生加深对美国和全球各地妇女的生活，文化和历史的了解。我们提供本科主修课程和辅修课程，并在女同性恋，男同性恋，双性恋，变性者和酷儿研究中容纳未成年人。我们拥有文学硕士和博士学位课程，并将继续为附属部门的研究生提供博士学位。
Feminist Studies is a dynamic and interdisciplinary field that examines how gender and sexuality impact every aspect of our lives. Our faculty approach gender from a critical, global, and intersectional perspective that centers the knowledge, movements, and survival strategies of people most targeted by gender-based violence and inequality. As a student in our department, youll learn to identify the gendered dimensions of today's most pressing issues and to produce timely and original research that helps us understand our past and present and that contributes to creating a more just future. During your studies, youll build broad expertise on issues of gender and sexuality, preparing you for further academic training, leadership in feminist and LGBTQ organizations, and a vast range of other careers. Our department's particular areas of strength include Black cultural studies, queer theory, trans studies, labor studies, migration studies, reproductive justice, and performance studies.
