Program details

Overview

This interdisciplinary certificate, jointly offered by the Faculty of Letters and Human Sciences and the Faculty of Social Sciences, builds theoretical and practical knowledge of women, men, sex, gender, and feminisms across diverse societies, drawing on historical and sociological perspectives as well as practical, field-based learning. The 30-credit program is nominally one year of full-time study, typically completed over two to three sessions depending on summer-term participation, with up to 15 credits of prior learning eligible for recognition. Two required courses, on gender and society and on feminist approaches, methodologies, and practices, are paired with electives spanning history, practical training, and multidisciplinary fields such as anthropology, cinema, criminology, philosophy, and sexology. Admission is offered in the Fall, Winter, and Summer terms. Students have access to practical placements and to affiliated research infrastructure, and credits can be integrated into a multidisciplinary bachelor's degree.

Admission Requirements: Quebec applicants need any DEC. Applicants with Canadian secondary schooling from outside Quebec need a secondary-school diploma plus one year of university study.
