PhD Programmes in Social Sciences Gender Studies Women's Studies
Women’s studies programs are interdisciplinary courses that examine women’s roles in societies, cultures and socioeconomic classes. Students may learn about feminist theories, multiculturalism, social justice, critical theory, queer theory and politics to fully understand the representation of women in race, gender, politics and religions.
The PhD is a doctoral degree, specifically called a "doctor of philosophy" degree. This is misleading because PhD holders are not necessarily philosophers (unless they earned their degree in philosophy!). That said, PhD recipients are able to engage in thought experiments, reason about problems, and solve problems in sophisticated ways.
