Notes
- The courses in the concentration can be drawn from courses focusing on historical periods, theory, film and media, or cultural studies. As concerns the PhD courses in the related category, we means to suggest at least one course in theory even if theory is not the area of concentration.
- Women’s Studies courses are recommended as possible electives.
- Students are encouraged to consider a Women’s Studies minor or a double PhD concentration in Women’s Studies. See the Women’s Studies Program for more information.
