LSE Department of Gender Studies

The Department of Gender Studies at LSE pioneers intersectional, interdisciplinary and transnational teaching and research. As a stand-alone department, we are able to provide not only a shared physical space for our students to interact with peers and faculty, but also a distinct intellectual space. We run eight master’s programmes and have 15 faculty members, including leading global thinkers and world-class academics. The Department offers a vibrant research culture with resident research fellows, visiting scholars, public lectures and conferences, and a regular programme of research seminars. Our community of students, staff and alumni is truly international (between 2015 and 2021 we welcomed students from 61 countries). 🔴 Find out more and study with us:
