Gender & Women Studies is the interdisciplinary programme which acts as a catalyst to highlight women’s role in all aspects of life in the national development. The aim of the programme is to encourage women’s role in the academic disciplines that have been historically male dominated. Gender and Women Studies expands definition and perception of gender, which is a social construction of male and female roles in the society. The discipline encourages critical analysis of the interplay of gender, class, and race in society. Furthermore, it offers the holistic approach to knowledge by infusing it with a new perspective to shape a better future for all the people. Thus the courses are designed to encourage further research and analysis on women’s status in Pakistani society. The specialization in this subject is equally in demand, in public and private sector. It will prove beneficial in many careers, especially in service people such as, journalists, educationists, community workers, administrators and human resource managers etc.
