ABSTRACT
In Chapter 5, you got to see the multiple kinds of employment opportunities that exist for WGST grads. We hope that you came away from that chapter feeling empowered about the variety of possibilities available. You will discover more pathways here—some graduates pursue positions that directly utilize and apply their knowledge and understanding of gender issues, whereas others may work in environments in which a Women’s and Gender Studies degree is a benefit, yet not always actively acknowledged. There is no one model or way to use one’s Women’s and Gender Studies degree! These employment paths are marked with trial and error, inspiration, passion, serendipity, creativity, and tons of hard work.
