about program

The BS Gender & Women Studies program aims to produce leaders who understand the sociopolitical dimensions of gender and contribute to social transformation. Students engage with topics like feminist theory, gender and media, women in politics, and reproductive rights. The curriculum incorporates fieldwork, community engagement, and policy analysis, helping students apply theoretical knowledge to practical solutions. As gender issues intersect with economics, health, education, and law, graduates find employment in international development agencies (e.g., UN Women, UNDP), advocacy groups, government ministries, and academia. The program also fosters entrepreneurship and innovation in women-led initiatives. In Pakistan’s evolving cultural landscape, this program nurtures informed citizens who challenge stereotypes and foster inclusive growth.
