Study

Showcasing the diversity of gender studies across UCL, including literary studies, history, philosophy, art history, anthropology and global health.

Gender and Sexuality Studies at UCL is based at the Centre for Multidisciplinary and Intercultural Inquiry (CMII).

Staff affiliated to the GFRN teach on the MA Gender, Society and Representation, an inter-faculty programme drawing on the unusual breadth of disciplines for which UCL is renowned, including development studies, law, anthropology, literary scholarship, geography and queer studies. It is also possible to take an MPhil/PhD in Gender and Sexuality Studies. Affiliated staff supervise a range of doctoral projects on gender and feminism.
