BU's Gender Studies, an interdisciplinary program, uses gender as a category of analysis to understand cultural configurations.
The minor examines how definitions of masculine and feminine difference constitute:
- social
- aesthetic
- economic
- historical structures
- perceptions
... within historical and trans-national contexts.
The Gender Studies program offers cross-listed courses in eight departments across campus. Course topics range from Human Sexuality to African American Women Writers. The program co-sponsors events with campus groups and offices, and more.
Eighteen credit hours are required to complete this minor program.
