Two Graduate Certificates Offered in the Department

Students pursuing graduate work in the Department of Gender, Sexuality, and Women’s Studies will become acquainted with various feminist (and other appropriate) theoretical approaches and methodologies for examining the role of gender in cultural systems. Gender will be understood in intersection with other categories of power, including race, ethnicity, social class, sexuality, religion, ability, age, and nationality.

  • The Women’s Studies Certificate (WST) is designed for graduate students from any discipline who wish to focus on interdisciplinary issues related to feminist theory and practice.
  • The Gender and Development (GAD) certificate is designed for graduate students from any discipline who wish to focus on issues related to gender and development.

Graduate and professional students from all colleges at UF are eligible to enroll in either certificate program offered in the Department.

Applications for the certificate must be submitted to the Department’s Graduate Coordinator, Dr. Jillian Hernandez.
