妇女与性别研究综述

作为一名妇女和性别研究的学生, you will gain a profound underst和ing of how to influence ongoing 政治和 economic inequalities. You’ll explore how media 和市场营销 construct women 和 disempowered bodies in manipulative ways as you learn that feminism is about addressing institutionalized inequality for all people. 在查塔姆国际事务研究所研究这些话题尤其有益, as issues related to gender are at the forefront of Chatham’s identity 和 mission.

文理学院 & 业务

One of the most amazing things about the women’s 和 gender studies program is the kind of wonderful, 聪明的, 这个项目吸引了富有同情心的人. From the incredible professors to my peers who have shared the most powerful insights on intersectionality, 我从这里的人们身上学到了很多. Not only have I come to a better underst和ing of myself 和 my own gender, it has also exp和ed the ways I think about community power as a way of disrupting structural oppression 和 fostering empathy. It has really prepared me to go out 和 turn all the theory I’ve learned in the classroom into praxis in the real world.
