Master of Arts -
Gender & Queer Studies
Diversity of perspectives and complex science(s).
The single-subject Master's degree program offers students from various disciplines research-oriented profiling opportunities from the broad fields of (applied) social and educational sciences, humanities and cultural studies, natural and technical sciences, law, medicine, economics and the arts. The thematic subject of the Master's degree program is the negotiation of "gender" and "sexuality" concepts, which are examined from different theoretical, methodological and system-competent perspectives and thereby convey diverse, mutually complementary (inter-)disciplinary approaches. The theoretical frame of reference is spanned by international gender studies and queer studies and at the same time expanded by application-oriented knowledge. This scope of knowledge is unique in the German academic landscape.
The Master's course is supported by all faculties of the University of Cologne and is realized in cooperation with the Cologne University of Technology and the Cologne University of Music and Dance. The cooperation of three universities offers students the unique opportunity to develop individual profiles in a wide range of courses.
