This capstone seminar will ensure that students have developed the critical and research abilities needed to integrate their theoretical knowledge from many disciplines and their practical experience in their internship in the context of Women's and Gender Studies. Students will prepare and present substantial research projects that demonstrate their recognition of sex/gender as social constructs, their analysis of existing models and paradigms, their understanding of the intersections between societal structures and other social divisions such as race, class, sexual orientation, age, and disability. Open only to Women's and Gender Studies majors who have completed 90 credits. Prerequisites: WGS 100, WGS 320. WGS 490 or WGS 494 must be taken prior to, or concurrently with, WGS 498.
