Women’s Studies is a dynamic field of inquiry that challenges its participants, both faculty and students. Women’s Studies at UW offers students the opportunity to explore issues of gender and sexuality through a major, minor, and graduate program. Our Women’s Studies program not only fills in the gaps in our knowledge about women but also stimulates us to review and reflect on how our knowledge is gendered. Our classes promote critical thinking, writing and analytical skills. In the spirit of feminism, our students and faculty tend to be campus and community leaders. We are proud that our student group, the Women’s Action Network WAN) was recognized last year by the Associated Students of UW (ASUW) for its success on campus.

On this site, you will find links to our curriculum, course offerings, faculty, events, scholarships and awards for students, academic/activist resources and WAN. Enjoy our most recent newsletter and our five year academic plan, as well as photos and the program from our 2008 graduation banquet. Feel free to contact us with any questions. We would love to hear from you.
