18 credits
Department of Criminal Justice & Criminology
The Gender and Sexuality Studies (GSS) minor offers students an interdisciplinary exploration of how gender and sexuality shape our everyday experiences, relationships, and society. Drawing from the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences, GSS provides valuable insights into cultural perspectives, historical contexts, and contemporary issues related to identity and expression. Through engaging topics such as representations of gender in literature and media, the psychology of human relationships, and the evolving roles of work and family, students develop a deeper understanding of the diverse ways gender and sexuality influence the world around us. This minor fosters critical thinking, empathy, and a broadened perspective that equips students with skills applicable across a wide range of fields and professions.
