Gender Studies: This course offers a critical exploration into the ways gender shapes our identities, social structures, and global power dynamics. Moving beyond simple binaries, we will investigate how "manhood" and "womanhood" are socially constructed and how these definitions intersect with race, class, and sexuality to influence lived experiences. Through an interdisciplinary lens—incorporating history, sociology, and media studies—you will develop the analytical tools to challenge stereotypes, dismantle systemic biases, and understand the evolving landscape of gender justice in the 21st century. Whether analyzing the "glass ceiling" in corporate spaces or the performance of identity on social media, this course invites you to look at the world through a more inclusive and critical lens.
