Women’s, 性别, and Ethnic Studies are interdisciplinary minor degree programs that explore 性别 as a system of relations and power and the impact of race and 少数民族ity on the creation of identity, justice, and power. In the Women's and 性别 Studies minor program students apply feminist, 性别, and queer theory to understand intersectional issues of race, sexuality, and class, collectively creating a society free of discrimination, harassment, and violence. In the Ethnic Studies program students apply critical theories of race and intersectionality to understand systems of privilege and oppression in a complex society, gaining a multicultural competency to work with populations that are both diverse and inclusive.
