The ever-increasing movement of people, commodities, politics and culture鈥斺�済lobalization鈥濃�攊mpacts all of us in different ways. The Undergraduate Certificate in Global Gender and Sexuality Studies provides students with an opportunity to study how individuals and groups from diverse gender, racial, ethnic, national, class and sexual backgrounds live in and engage with the world and how processes of global change affect gender relations locally, nationally and internationally.听 The certificate is designed for students who wish to understand, analyze and respond to these dramatic global transformations and their impact on women and gender relations, complementing students鈥� majors and interests and preparing them for graduate studies and employment.

Purpose:

This interdisciplinary undergraduate certificate program is designed to take advantage of the research strengths of our core and associate faculty and to enhance the experience of undergraduate students in any major, including international affairs, political science, history, ethnic studies, geography, English, anthropology, sociology, integrative physiology, environmental studies and many others.
