Why study Gender Studies?
Gender Studies is available as a minor. The focus is upon the role and importance of gender in human interactions within both Australian and global cultures. You will build 'gender literacy''a developed understanding of the conceptual frameworks used by feminist thinkers and gender theorists, and the tools for analysing and discussing the construction, representation and performance of femininity and masculinity. This will be applied to fields of inquiry including popular fiction, media (traditional and new) and politics and, at advanced levels, to specialised areas selected from literature, sociology, indigenous studies, development and internationalism, and philosophy.
