Graduate Certificate in Gender and Sexuality Studies
We are proud to offer the Graduate Certificate in Gender and Sexuality Studies to students enrolled in University of Chicago doctoral programs who have completed the following requirements:
- A graduate-level foundation course in gender and sexuality, e.g., Advanced Theories of Sex/Gender or an equivalent graduate-level course.
- At least three additional courses in gender and sexuality studies. These may be cross-listed courses or equivalent non-cross listed courses approved by the graduate chair.
- A major research paper with a substantial gender/sexuality component.
- Participation in the Gender & Sexualities Studies Workshop.
All four courses must be taken for a “quality grade,” i.e., not an R or a P.
Students wishing to receive the certificate should submit evidence of having fulfilled the requirements for approval to the Student Affairs Administrator, Bonnie Kanter, at bonniek@uchicago.edu.
