The Women's and Gender Studies Program is an inter- and multi-disciplinary program based in the humanities and social sciences that offers an undergraduate minor and a graduate certificate to students in any program at the University. The program introduces students to the rapidly expanding areas of scholarship focused upon women, men, and gender that have developed within the academy that are transforming scholarship in virtually every academic discipline today.

The program promotes open dialogue directed toward a vision of a world community that embraces diversity, justice, peace, and freedom--values central to a liberal education. This program thus participates in Duquesne University's mission to provide for its students not only intellectual breadth but also a moral and ethical foundation for their life-long personal and professional growth.
