Research Across Disciplines and Boundaries

The Women’s and Gender Studies (WGS) Program at Clark is an interdisciplinary program that is supported by more than 50 affiliated faculty from the visual and performing arts, humanities, social sciences, and other interdisciplinary areas.

Working with faculty from various disciplines, you will have ample opportunity to connect theory with practice on campus, in the Worcester community, and further afield.
