Women’s and Gender Studies five-year BA/MA program

WOMEN’S AND GENDER STUDIES is offering a new combined five-year Bachelor’s and Master’s program.  (Integrated BA/MA WGS Degree Program)
This means that in five years at UT Austin, Students could earn a Bachelor’s degree and Master’s degree in WOMEN’S AND GENDER STUDIES.
 How does this work?
Students who major in WOMEN’S AND GENDER STUDIES within the College of Liberal Arts and excel in academics, can begin taking graduate courses during their Junior year.
The key is to get in touch with the WOMEN’S AND GENDER STUDIES academic advising office early during a student’s academic career and get started!
Students will need to make progress on undergraduate degree requirements (both the WGS major and your COLA/UT Core requirements) before getting permission to take graduate courses.  Ideally, students should to begin this process during the spring semester of your sophomore year.  It’s never too early to start thinking about Graduate Study possibilities!

Freshmen and Sophomores who might be interested should attend an information session on the NEW COMBINED FIVE-YEAR BACHELORS AND MASTERS PROGRAM in WOMEN’S & GENDER STUDIES.

All information sessions will take place in BUR 556.
