Overview

This is a flexible degree, and you’ll develop expertise in gender theories, as well as gaining an understanding of the significance of gender and sexuality in research design.

Key Facts

Throughout the programme, you’ll learn how to treat sexuality as an object of study, as an analytic approach, and as a way of thinking across disciplinary boundaries. Organised around broad themes, you will be introduced to new developments and critical frameworks such as queer theory, trans* politics and arguments about the "sexualisation of culture" and cultural production.

A key focus of the Gender (Sexuality) programme from London School of Economics and Political Science is the ethical and intellectual issues that arise from practicing gender and sexuality studies. In addition to the compulsory courses, you can choose from a range of options, from within and outside of the department, enabling you to develop your own gender studies pathway and focus on key research areas.
