MA Gender Studies
Gender matters and has always mattered. Gender reflects the everyday and the institutional experiences of everyone. From issues of violence against women and girls; trans-exclusion and liberation, to toxic masculinity and UN Sustainable Development Goals. There's never been a better time to study gender.
At the core of this Gender Studies degree is the idea that studying gender is enriched by the identities it intersects with. This includes, but is not limited to, race, class, disability and sexuality. On the MA Gender Studies at UEA, you'll explore gender construction and diversity. Come and learn about the history of ideas and study key writings. You'll think critically about the direction of contemporary gender studies and debates. And help to identify the questions we should be asking about gender equality in arts, society and culture.
Explore the fundamental debates of gender studies. Focus on gendered aspects of society and culture and its links with other inequalities and social divisions. From literary theory to online activism, you’ll untangle the dynamics of gender that structure the private and public worlds in which women and girls, men and boys, and those living beyond the binary operate.
This gender studies degree is taught by experts from across many disciplines, including literature, history, philosophy, politics, media and cultural studies, to name a few. So, you'll develop your understanding through a broad range of disciplinary approaches. What’s more, you’ll learn about core feminist research methods. This will equip you with the tools to actively shape the field yourself. This could be in further research or working in the public sector, policy or consultancy roles. You have the opportunity to change the way the world thinks about and approaches gender.
By the end of this course, you’ll be knowledgeable about the gendered aspects of societies and cultures. You’ll be confident enough to study for a PhD to pursue an academic path or seek careers in public sector, politics, or consultancy.
