Course Descriptions
Urban and Regionat Planning/Women's Studies
Women’s Studies
Women's Studies started at the University of Waterloo in 1971, when the first course on women was taught. Since that time, there has been consistent development of specific courses on women, as well as the integration of women’s studies in many of the more general courses offered.
All courses that are offered, both at the undergraduate and graduate level, are regular credit courses, counting like any other course toward the fulfillment of requirements for majors and honours in their respective disciplines. Courses on women are offered in the Departments of Anthropology, English, History, Philosophy, Political Science, Psychology, Sociology and Social Development Studies. The Arts Library has a special collection on women which has been constantly expanded and which now comprises more than 10,000 items on women. This makes it probably the largest collection on women in Canada. The Canadian Newsletter of Research on Women wasstarted . at this University. It appears three times a year and abstracts recent research on women in Canada and abroad.
Library, News/etter, a relatively large number of courses and people who are actively concerned with research and teaching on women make women’s studies an important and well developed topic at the University.
Students who are interested in The Women’s Studies courses listed on this page will find complete course descriptions in the appropriate departmental sections of this Calendar.
