Overview
Sexuality and Gender Studies focuses on issues salient to the complex communities of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, intersex, ally, asexual, and other identities that revolve around sexuality and gender. Major topics include understanding historical contexts, homophobia, transphobia, internalized phobias, political and legal perspectives, international contexts, communication and linguistic contexts, psychological and sociological perspectives, and mental and physical health concerns. Students will be expected to apply advanced critical thinking skills, take on leadership roles within the classes and internships, and conduct thorough literature searches.
