WGST 202 - Introduction to Gender and Sexuality [GEUS]


This course will introduce students to the way in which society constructs gender and sexual identity, and the way in which, in turn, gender and sexuality shape our understanding of the world and ourselves.

Credit 3 hrs
Grade Mode Normal (A-F) Course Rotation

Introduction to Gender and Sexuality meets the requirements of the General Education  Program in the U.S. Diversity  area by demonstrating the ways in which gender and sexual conditioning influence the experiences of men and women and shape their sense of identity as it intersects with different classes, racial or ethnic groups, and sexualities. The course helps students to understand and explore the ways in which these complex constructions and attitudes towards gender and sexuality lead to prejudice in the spheres of family, education, employment, health, politics and the media.
