The Certificate in Language, Identity, and Sexuality is designed to engage students in the interdisciplinary study of gender and queer identity, with the purpose of emphasizing critical thinking skills, empathy, and inclusivity. The curriculum, which includes a basis in literature, historical precedents, and key concepts in the fields of Psychology and Communications, would be ideal for students interested in careers in education, healthcare, counseling, advocacy work, and/or further research in English graduate programs. This certificate would be valuable to students who seek to foster an equitable and intersectional community in whatever profession they may pursue.
