Graduate Certificate
The interdisciplinary graduate certificate in women's & gender studies introduces students to a wide range of theoretical and practical perspectives on women and gender and provides an excellent complement to the wide array of graduate degrees offered at Ohio University.
Certificate students may be enrolled in any M.A. or Ph.D. program at the university.
Information packets are available at the Women's & Gender Studies Program offices, 004 Lindley Hall. Please go to the Advising page on this web site, or contact the Women's & Gender Studies advisor, Lynette Peck, for more information.
Note that the Grad Certificate requirements will not change under semesters (Fall '12). For complete Q2S information, click here.
Requirements:
The graduate certificate requires four courses, including:
-

-
Three graduate-level courses from our core graduate and cross-listed course offerings. Two of these courses must be outside your major field. See list of approved courses below.
