DGS Department Outcomes
The DGS Department strives to
- offer a curriculum that allows students to examine
issues of culture and gender in a multicultural, global
context from multiple approaches, on multiple topics and
through multiple, interdisciplinary lenses.
- encourage students to enhance their abilities to
analyze, contrast, and synthesize diverse values and
experiences, especially historically marginalized positions,
and to participate in public discourse on topics of culture
and gender (in a multicultural, global context) with
self-conviction and respect for others.
- provide the campus and community with opportunities to
learn about and discuss the dynamics of culture and gender
in global context.
- provide faculty members across campus with opportunities
to learn about ways to incorporate issues related to
culture, gender, race, ethnicity, class, and sexual
orientation into their courses.
- promote the professional development of DGS Department faculty, in both content areas and pedagogy.
