Overview

Throughout the Gender, Policy and Inequalities programme from London School of Economics and Political Science you’ll be encouraged by faculty to develop critical and independent thought on gender and gender inequalities, while taking compulsory courses in gender, policy, and inequalities. You’ll also be able to choose from a range of optional courses across the Department and the School.

The interdisciplinary nature of gender studies means that you’ll be equipped with a broad range of knowledge and skills that can be applied in a variety of professional and academic settings. Previous graduates have gone on to work in national and local government departments, international institutions (including the EU, the UN and World Bank), the media and publishing, charities, and non-governmental organisations. Others continue to study for PhDs and go on to work in academia.
