Introduction
Carleton’s Gender, Women’s & Sexuality Studies program provides an interdisciplinary meeting ground for exploring questions about gender, women, and sexuality that are transforming knowledge in the sciences, social sciences, arts, and humanities. Our goal is to include gender and sexuality and class and race as central elements of social and cultural analysis.
Once you learn how to map the field of gender, women’s, and sexuality studies, you will advance to the Foundations of LGBTQ Studies course. This course provides an interdisciplinary examination of sexual desires, sexual orientations, and the concept of sexuality generally, focusing on the construction of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender identities. If you decide to major in GWSS, additional upper-level courses in methods and theory will follow.
