What happens if I want to take a class that is not designated as a WSt course?
The WSI tries to coordinate with other departments to ensure that courses offered in other departments that have a gender component are also listed as Women’s Studies courses. When they are cross-listed with our Institute, they have a WSt prefix and automatically count toward a graduate student’s 30 hours of required coursework as long as you register for the WSt prefix. Nevertheless, sometimes gender-related courses in other departments escape our attention and are not cross-listed as WSt. Additionally, sometimes students wish to take a course highly relevant to their scholarly development in Women’s Studies that does not have an explicit gender component.
