Masculinity and femininity, often referred to as gender, have evolved throughout history and are still evolving. Gender is a feature of all known cultures. It is subject to continual reinterpretation and wide cross-cultural variation. Studying gender is not only fascinating in itself, but often provides important clues about other fundamental characteristics within and across cultures. Gender studies examines gender issues related to sexuality; the body; race and class; business and politics; health; developing societies; artistic movements; academic institutions and knowledge; sports and leisure; law; the media, and many other areas. Courses explore issues related to gender across academic disciplines to develop new approaches to knowledge about gender-related issues, and to transform traditional disciplines and fields of study. The evaluation and analysis are pursued through courses offered by the Gender Studies Program; by the College of Arts and Sciences Departments of African American and African Diaspora Studies, Anthropology, Biology, Comparative Literature, Criminal Justice, Economics, English, Folklore and Ethnomusicology, French and Italian, History, History and Philosophy of Science, Philosophy, Political Science, Psychology, Religious Studies, and Sociology; and by the Schools of Education, Library and Information Science, Law, Music, Nursing, Public and Environmental Affairs, and Health, Physical Education, and Recreation. The program is open to all graduate students. Course Requirements Grades Examination CoursesG600 Concepts of Gender (3 cr.)
