Bachelor of Arts - Centre for Global Studies - Global Gender Studies (Blended Delivery)

How Blended Learning Works

Upon completion of the 1st year of study online students will then join their cohort on campus for their 2nd, 3rd and 4th years of study and meet the in person requirements for Canada’s Post Graduate Work Permit (PGWP). A valid study permit is required only for on-campus 2nd – 4th years of study, for which a provincial attestation letter (PAL) will be issued by Huron.

Program Description

The degree modules offered in Global Gender Studies focus on gender– and sex–based inequalities and formations in the world from specifically feminist and queer orientations in research, analysis, and theory. Combining the strengths and supports for these studies in existing Centre for Global Studies courses with a range of courses offered by Western University’s Dept. of Gender, Sexuality, and Women’s Studies, this program of study offers remarkably rich opportunities to understand how global development, globalization, and cultural constructs shape and order individual’s lives and the dynamics of societies in the world on registers of gender, sex, and sexual orientation. Students gain especially strong study of problems in the mobilising of feminist theory, gender analysis, and studies in sexuality on global scales.
