The Department of Gender and Sexuality Studies (DGSS) approaches societal concerns and knowledge production from a holistic, intersectional perspective. We believe that discourses about queer studies, body politics, masculinity, feminism, and intersexuality are not isolated, but rather interconnected, and that our approaches and contributions reflect this.
