Women and Gender Studies in the School of Social Work at University of Windsor offers a program that gives students an opportunity to critically engage with feminist scholarship. The Women and Gender Studies program offers courses discussing a range of topics, such as the history of the women’s movement, the analysis of pop culture through a feminist lens, and the study of different forms of oppression. Students are given the chance to explore the intersectionality and diversity of identity, such as race, class, sexuality, class, age, and ability. WGST provides tools for students to develop critical awareness and connect their learning to social structures and human experience.
