For those looking for a more focused stream of study, we offer this certificate. Each program has its own entry requirements and course structure, which you can read about in the Handbook. They are offered full-time (or part-time for domestic students only).Gender Studies considers the significance of gender and sexuality across a broad range of cultural contexts and histories. The program analyses how gender intersects with crucial issues such as ageing, class, disability, ethnicity and globalisation. Subjects consider ideas about femininity, masculinity and sexuality through close engagement with an extensive variety of theorists, case studies and media. Gender Studies is transdisciplinary and draws on the diverse interest of specialists located throughout the Faculty. This enables its students to develop a unique combination of research skills drawn from both the Arts and Social Sciences.
