Learning Goals

Our learning goals include the ability to: engage with critical theories of gender and sexuality as they intersect with race, ethnicity, class, religion, nationality, geopolitical and regional specificities; explore intellectual, social, and political histories and accordingly, apply such within discussion, debate, research, writing, and praxis; interrogate our own assumptions and approaches to gender or sexuality-related matters; and develop an understanding of interdisciplinarity and post-disciplinarity. As such, disciplines include: politics; law; health/medicine; international relations; economics; media & communications; philosophy; theology; ethnic, regional, cultural, and post-colonial studies; and other disciplines in the field researched at an advanced level, sufficient for publication consideration.
