Body

Work with one of the country’s largest and leading cohorts of Gender and Social Justice Studies scholars to earn your graduate M.A. or Ph.D. with a Feminist and Gender Studies collaborative specialization. 

As a humanities, sciences or social sciences graduate student, explore interdisciplinary feminist theories, methodologies, and practices through course work and research. At Trent, you can earn a degree and a specialization in as little as one year, as you investigate the centrality of gender and its interactions with hierarchical power relations.

As home to the Canada Research Chair in Feminist and Gender Studies and with close to 30 affiliated faculty members undertaking related research, the program gives you an opportunity to be inspired by today’s leaders in the field. Regardless of your discipline, this specialization will allow you to collaborate with our community of scholars as you pursue your own academic path.

  • Participate in one of the few collaborative programs of this kind in Canada
  • Learn about the foundations of research in feminist and gender studies in the interdisciplinary core course – a seminar that brings students together with experts in the field
  • Develop your research skills and deepen your knowledge of feminist methodologies prior to embarking on your thesis or major research paper

For more information about a collaborative specialization in feminist and gender studies, please contact Catherine O’Brien: catherineobrien@trentu.ca
