UMA Undergraduate Guide 2015-2016 Certificate Programs Queer and Sexuality Studies (Five Colleges) The Program
The Program
The Five College Queer and Sexuality Studies certificate provides undergraduate students an opportunity to pursue a multi-disciplinary course of study that critically examines the relationship between sexual and gender identities, experiences, cultures and communities in a wide range of historical, political and transnational contexts. The certificate encourages students to investigate how non-normative and normative genders and sexualities intersect with other social categories such as race, ethnicity, gender, class and nationality. Students pursuing the certificate consult with a program advisor to develop a unique course of study. Learn more about finding an advisor, courses and certificate information at www.fivecolleges.edu/queerstudies.
