| PSYC 349 - PSYCHOLOGY OF WOMEN |
|
In this course we will explore the diverse psychological and life experiences of women, as well as investigate what it means to "be" a "woman." Through research and feminist theory, students will investigate topics ranging from work, education, gendered development in childhood and adolescence, to gender based violence, relationships, media influence on women, as well as gender in relation to power and status. How gender interacts with race/ethnicity, sexuality, dis/abilities, age, socioeconomic status, and other variables, will be attended to throughout the course. It is hoped that through participation in this course, students will develop a fuller understanding of how gender influences the lives of women, and can reflect on how gender has influenced their own lives, relationships, and perceptions of the world. Fulfills Category 4 requirement. (Formerly Category 5)
