Since 1974, the Women and Gender Studies Program at the University of Colorado in Boulder has offered an   interdisciplinary curriculum encompassing the social sciences and the humanities. Courses reflect the   new scholarship on women: they focus on the interface of the public and private spheres of women's lives; on   the intersection of gender, race, ethnicity, sexuality, nation and class; and on feminist studies of gender identity   and theories of inequality. The curriculum is multifaceted, offering courses on U.S. women of color, women and   development as well as global feminism. The program houses a reading library in the Hazel Gates Woodruff   Cottage and sponsors colloquia, workshops, and other cultural and educational events.

  Employers hire people who can problem solve, write, research and think. Many of our graduates have pursued
  careers in law, medicine, public health, public policy, social work, teaching, counselling, advocacy, journalism,
  television production, union/labor organizing, public relations, academia, politics, fundraising for non-profits,
  small business developer, librarianship, arts administration, and in Foreign Service.
