Women and Gender Studies
www.wgsi.utoronto.ca/graduate/collaborative-program
The Graduate Collaborative Program in Women and Gender Studies (CWGS) provides students with an opportunity for advanced feminist studies in concert with a MA or PhD degree in another discipline. The program offers a rich interdisciplinary environment in which to grapple with how gender and sexuality is tangled with questions of race, citizenship, embodiment, colonialism, nation, global capitalism, violence, aesthetics, and other pressing concerns.
The graduate programs listed below participate in the Collaborative Program in Women and Gender Studies at the University of Toronto. The collaborating units contribute courses and provide facilities and supervision for graduate research. The program is administered by the Women and Gender Studies Institute (WGSI). The CWGS brings together 34 graduate programs, more than 100 courses, and more than 100 graduate faculty members. Our core faculty brings transnational feminist commitments to the study of diverse sites and their interconnection with particular focus on Canada, the Caribbean, Africa, the Middle East, South Asia, East Asia, and the United States.
Students who successfully complete the requirements of the collaborative program will receive the notation “Completed Collaborative Program in Women and Gender Studies” on their transcript, in addition to the master’s or doctoral degree from their home graduate unit.
