The PhD in Gender, Sexuality and Women's Studies at Western University is a thesis-based doctoral program examining how gender, sexuality, race, class, and disability shape social experience and culture. Research areas include feminist theory, health, philosophy, queer studies, sexuality studies, law, violence against women, workplace equity, and the creative arts. Full-time study is structured over 12 terms, equivalent to approximately four years, and culminates in an original doctoral thesis. Applicants typically hold a master's degree in Women's, Gender, or Feminist Studies with a strong feminist-theory component and a minimum average of A- (80 percent); applicants with an honours bachelor's degree in Women's Studies and a master's degree in another field with relevant feminist-theory background may also be considered. Graduates are prepared for research, teaching, and policy roles across academic and community settings engaging with gender and sexuality studies.
