    About

    Queer and trans issues stand at the forefront of modern feminist politics. Learn how intersectional dynamics play into the complex societal systems that keep inequality alive.

Students can opt for an emphasis in Queer, Trans and Sexuality Studies, which focuses on the intersectionality of discrimination. The department, founded in 1975 and led by a renowned faculty, stands at the forefront of feminist research and curriculum, helping students build critical thinking, reading, writing and research skills.
