Gender Studies classes emphasize participatory education in which student collaboration, critical thinking, and personal insight are encouraged. A degree in Gender Studies equips students with open minds about the challenges of gender difference, analytical skills, understanding of socio-political issues currently affecting Pakistani women in today’s diverse and multi-cultural world.

The taught MA program allows students to follow a course of study that incorporates both gender and a related discipline. The degree has a three-part structure:
· Obligatory core courses
· Required courses for Gender studies
· A dissertation that combines these two areas of study.
