The Department of Gender and Women's Studies offers a PhD and Graduate Certificate. 

The GWS PhD program is designed to train cutting-edge scholars in gender, sexuality, and feminist studies. The program began in the Fall of 2013 and we continue to welcome applications.  Please use the PhD program link to find information about the program, the requirements and application process.

The Graduate Certificate in GWS is designed to provide students with a solid foundation in theory and scholarship in gender and women studies that can complement and enhance their training in other fields.  The Graduate Certificate is available to graduate students in any department in the university. Individuals who are not currently graduate students at UK can complete the Graduate Certificate after admission through the Graduate School.  Please use the Graduate Certificate link to find out more information about the program.
