Description

This course offers the opportunity for students to develop an understanding of issues surrounding gender in higher education, with a focus on the experiences of women, men, and transgender students, faculty, administrators, and staff as well as the institutional contexts and practices that shape those experiences. An especially important goal of the course is to provide students with the opportunity to engage in these topics through developing critical understandings of theories used to understand gender in higher education, along with implications for research, policy, and practice.
