Interdisciplinary Courses
What does “interdisciplinary” mean?
Interdisciplinarity
means to combine two or more fields into one discipline. An interdisciplinary field crosses
boundaries and bridges gaps between traditional methods, thoughts, and
fields. Interdisciplinary student scholars are creative innovators that
form their own fields to meet the needs of a changing society.
So what does this mean for the Women’s and
Gender Studies Program?
The WGS Program encourages you to grow as an interdisciplinary
thinker by providing core courses steeped in broad methods and theories and allowing
you to take courses across different established disciplines that focus on
women or gender. These varied courses will inform you of other schools of
thought that can be applied or improved by women’s and gender studies’ methodologies.
Courses can focus on topics such as:
- women and film
- women and violence
- women writers
- women and politics
- women in other cultures
- gender and communication
