Overview

About Law and Women's and Gender Studies Dual Degree at Saint Louis University

While taking courses through both Saint Louis University School of Law and the women's and gender studies department, students develop research projects that focus on how law and legal policies intersect with gendered social institutions and practices.

By pursuing both degrees concurrently, students acquire a broader context for advocating for gender equality in law and policy, along with the distinct analytical training and skill set to navigate the legal system.

Careers

Attorneys with an M.A. in women's and gender studies are well equipped to work as nonprofit leaders, lobbyists, judges, public defenders and more. They may work in advocacy on behalf of women and other disadvantaged groups or on behalf of victims of gender-based violence, or choose to practice in fields such as employment law, family law, immigration law, health policy/health law, elder law and public interest law. Graduates also may pursue professional opportunities to expand diversity and representation in the legal profession or in higher education.
