Study Women's Studies Abroad

As a whole, women’s studies is fundamentally international and interdisciplinary. The exploration of gender concepts often requires students to pull from a variety of other fields, such as history, politics, race, religion, psychology, and the biological sciences. Exploring women’s studies abroad will expose students to a range of cultural practices and ideologies, therefore developing a global framework to further contextualize contemporary issues like human rights, violence against women, and the LGBT movement. Study abroad programs focused on women’s studies are available almost anywhere in the world, and each culture will provide its own perspective and approach to women’s issues.

Alicante was the absolute perfect place to go. Not touristy (like Valencia, Barcelona, or Madrid), but still an awesome place to visit/stay with everything you could every want (great restaurants, beaches, shops, activities, etc.). USAC was so helpful the entire time and made the process run so smoothly. Great communication and resources. I even had an incident involving a trip to the emergency room, and our coordinator helped me so much (even though it was a weekend after 5 pm) and the insurance they provided was a smooth process. The length of the trip was perfect (I did summer session 1), and I made so many friends on this trip! This is your sign to go USAC- Alicante!
