Course summary
Discuss contemporary social issues, focusing on gender, feminist and queer theory, and methodology.
This course is ideal for you if you:
- seek to develop an existing research interest
- are in a career in which issues of gender play an important role
- wish to explore a broad range of issues concerning gender.
On this course, you’ll gain a deep understanding of a range of topics, from identity and the social construction of gender to political aspects of gender and feminist research.
You will benefit from the expertise in the Centre for Gender Studies. We look at many areas of gender research, nationally and internationally. We’re intersectional, trans-inclusive and advocate for sex workers’ rights. You will also become part of our active student community through the PhD seminar series NGender and our strong links with local women’s and LGBT groups.
You will study in a lively intellectual environment, giving you the opportunity to network with other students from around the world. The global perspective you will gain alongside these networks will be valuable after you graduate.

When you graduate, you will have the problem-solving, analysis and interpretation skills employers look for.
Our graduates are well prepared for a range of careers in sectors such as:
- national and local government
- NGO/charity work
- journalism
- teaching
- equalities and diversity work within corporations.
Your advanced methodological skills also provide a strong foundation for further academic study or a career in research.
