Description:

The field of Gender and Women's Studies has transformed dramatically since its introduction to Lakehead University in 1990. Combine your degree with English, History, Indigenous Learning, Psychology, Political Science, Sociology, Social Work, Outdoor Recreation or Concurrent Education. Alongside women's experiences and gendered systems, you will examine elements of:

Sexuality
Queer Theory
Law
Masculinity
Transnational Activism
Ecofeminism
Social Justice
Pop Culture
Embodiment

Through these topics and more, it is our goal to demonstrate how people are constrained by various ideological notions and how these notions can be challenged to facilitate equality.
