Women’s and Gender Studies (WGS) courses at CCU explore historical and contemporary connections between gender and society. Our students analyze topics in communication, marriage, sexuality, pop culture, and others through the lens of gender to become a more effective agent for social change.
We also sponsor and co-host many events across campus, as well as strive to support other agents for change in our community. If you are interested in studying Women's and Gender Studies, have ideas on how to better our program or have questions, feel free to contact program director, Dr. Ina Seethaler, by any of the forms below:

Courses within the minor rigorously investigate the gendered nature of knowledge, institutional structures, and cultures to promote active learning and engaged citizenship among all University students – male and female – through various feminist theories and methodologies.
The Program also organizes and sponsors visiting writers, lectures, symposia, films, cultural events, and campus organizations that are devoted to the advancement of women's and gender studies.
