B.A./B.S. in Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies – Online

In pursuit of social change and justice

Become a change-maker by earning a degree that follows your everyday passion and skills. Oregon State University's online bachelor's program in women, gender, and sexuality studies relies on multidisciplinary approaches to the study of gender and sexuality, particularly as they intersect with race, ethnicity, class, culture, religion, nation and ability.

In this program you'll examine the use of feminist and anti-racist pedagogies as well as scholarship that contributes to social change and justice. As a means to challenge all forms of oppression, the program curriculum is centered on queer, transnational and women-of-color feminisms.
