Women’s
Studies (WMST)
100—Introduction to Women’s Studies,
3 Cr.
This course familiarizes students with
the social, economic, psychological, and political issues that challenge
contemporary women locally and internationally. It also encourages students to
further their personal progress toward understanding and dealing constructively
with women’s issues.
351—Women’s Health Issues, 2 or 3
Cr.
Designed to examine women’s health
issues from a feminist perspective, this course explores the relationship of
women to the health care system, discusses the historical role of women as
providers and consumers of health care, and uses a holistic model to examine
women’s issues and concerns across the lifespan. The third credit is earned
through an independent action project. (Equivalent to WMST 351.)
400—Seminar in Women’s Studies, 3
Cr.
This course examines the tools and
methods of feminist scholarship and culminates in a research project which
relates the student’s major to issues in women’s studies. This course meets
formally two hours per week and includes a 14-hour service project.
