Internships

In the Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies program, students routinely put theory into practice while exploring areas of interest that may lead to career choices after graduation. Students in the will program complete an internship after taking the course “Gender and Work,” which builds a theoretical framework for understanding issues of gender and equity at work.
