Besides absorbing a ton of current information to apply in my job even today, I expanded my network of contacts beyond my cubicle walls. I am grateful for the opportunity to be a Bruin.

Degree Information
The minor in Women's Studies enables you to develop an understanding of women in society in the past, present, and future from a multidisciplinary perspective, by focusing on women's experiences. The area of Women's Studies creates a new opportunity in the education of women and men, an opportunity to round out our understanding of human beings by exploring the other half of the human experience. You can apply your knowledge of gender issues not only in your daily life, but also to help understand how gender impacts behavior and decisions in work settings.
Choosing a minor in Women's Studies will well qualify you to work in areas such as human resources or EEOC settings, as well as the human services.
