The Centre for Women's Studies offers an interdisciplinary approach to issues of gender and constructions of female subjectivity and experience, using a variety of feminist models of analysis. Students taking both core subjects and cross-listed options will develop a range of skills relating to an increased understanding of feminist theory and a conversance with key concerns in the contemporary debate; and the ability to extend and apply different methodological approaches to the questions of gender. Students will also build upon their theoretical knowledges through an emphasis upon techniques of oral communication, formal presentation of their ideas, and a refinement of the process of written expression. Students who elect to include a research component in their degree will also extend these wide-ranging skills of analysis and communication in a topic area devised in consultation with a centre supervisor.
