Introduction
The program in women’s and gender studies at The University of Tulsa considers how gender and other intersecting factors, such as race, class, culture, sexuality, and age, have worked to shape people's life experiences from diverse backgrounds. The program analyzes the contemporary and historical factors that underlie diverse individuals' current statuses from all parts of the world and explores the various means by which people have sought to achieve equality.
The program’s dual emphases on interdisciplinary and intersectionality offer students analytical frameworks and methodological tools to understand people’s life experiences, interactions, and economic and social institutions. Courses promote awareness and knowledge of status-based oppression, people’s interrelationships, and how civil rights movements throughout history have struggled for equity. The program seeks to change the attitudes and practices that either silence people’s voices or work to devalue, marginalize, or subordinate certain people’s choices and life experiences. The Bachelor of Arts degree is offered in this area.
