Transdisciplinary, Transgressive, Transformative
The Department of Women’s Studies at TWU offers an exciting multicultural curriculum that integrates diverse perspectives, and critically applies feminist/womanist scholarship on behalf of social justice. At the undergraduate level, the program offers a minor with courses in a wide variety of fields. The minor is recommended for both men and women students wishing to explore issues related to gender, as it intersects with “race,” ethnicity, class, culture, religion, sexuality, and disability. At the graduate level, we offer both a Master of Arts and a Graduate Certificate.
TWU is the nation’s largest university primarily for women and offers the only graduate degree in Women’s Studies in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex.
