Home >Whitworth University Women's & Gender Studies Program
At Whitworth, we affirm that all people are created in God's image and share a common humanity. At the same time, the Whitworth Women's and Gender Studies Program acknowledges that many factors, such as gender, race, class, sexual orientation and religious upbringing influence our learning and our lives. These personal characteristics, including gender, may influence how women and men pursue scholarship, how women and men are represented in scholarship, in history and in society, and ultimately, how women and men may come to honor God, follow Christ, and serve humanity.
The learning outcomes of this major prepare the student to do the following:
- Use an interdisciplinary framework to engage with the pluralistic culture.
- Identify and investigate the intersections of gender, race, class and religion with gender experiences.
- Seek an increased understanding of gender issues from various Christian perspectives.
- Explore, develop, articulate and critique feminist views.
