Gender and Social Justice


Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Areas of Study


The Gender and Social Justice Program at McMaster is a vibrant graduate program and learning community committed to the intersectional study of gender, sexuality, race, ethnicity, class, ability, age, and other categories of social difference, through feminist, anti-racist, anti-colonial, and queer social justice lenses. The program is interdisciplinary in our teaching, learning, research, and activism, and prioritizes community-engaged research and praxis. Our M.A. is a one-year degree; our PhD Diploma is open to qualified students admitted to doctoral programs at McMaster as an additional credential.
