Program overview
Bachelor of Arts - Gender Equality and Social Justice is a four year honours route at Nipissing University in North Bay, Ontario. The Bachelor of Arts - Gender Equality and Social Justice curriculum covers gender theory, intersectionality, social movements, human rights and the structural analysis of inequality across four years.
Studied as a single major rather than inside a dual degree, Bachelor of Arts - Gender Equality and Social Justice gives students the full depth of the subject and room for electives across the faculty. Taking Bachelor of Arts - Gender Equality and Social Justice on its own carries one implication worth stating. Equity work has become an institutional function rather than an activist one, and a second specialisation or a graduate route later gives this analysis a professional home, which is worth weighing before choosing Bachelor of Arts - Gender Equality and Social Justice over a dual route.
No CIP code check applies to Bachelor of Arts - Gender Equality and Social Justice, since the field of study requirement reaches non degree credentials rather than degrees. Study at this level does not carry spousal open work permit eligibility, so anyone considering Bachelor of Arts - Gender Equality and Social Justice with a partner should plan on a single income.
