Women’s Studies Minor


12 Credits Required

Requirements for the Minor


The requirements for the minor include WGSS 28000, Introduction to Women’s Studies, and three additional courses. The introductory course provides an overview of this interdisciplinary area of study. One additional Women’s Studies WGSS course is required at the 40000 level. The remaining three courses are selected from a list of approved courses offered by departments and programs in the College of Liberal Arts. Some of these courses have departmental prerequisites. Although WGSS 28000 is not a prerequisite to any of them, it is recommended as the first course of the program.

A. Required Introductory Course (3 credits)


C. Liberal Arts Courses (6 credits)


(Each course is 3-credit hours and must be outside of the student’s major. Courses listed in Req. B may also be used to fulfill this requirement, if not used to fulfill Req. B)

Notes


50% of credits for CLA minors must come from Purdue University

Students must receive a grade of “C” or better in order for a course to be accepted towards the requirements of the Minor.

Substitutions of other courses in the Women’s Studies course listings (e.g. HIST 49200, History of American Feminism ; POL 42900, Contemporary Feminist Theory ; etc.) may be made with the approval of the Director of the Women’s Studies Program.
