Women's Studies Graduate Student Association (WSGSA)

The Women’s Studies Graduate Student Association (WSGSA) exists to serve the needs of graduate students interested in the study and research of Women’s Studies at Florida International University.  Our mission is to promote an interdisciplinary structure of research.  The WSGSA aims to educate and promote the Women’s Studies consortium on a national and international level, host an annual multidisciplinary student conference, publish the Women’s Studies academic journal, Making Waves, advocate equal gender rights at all levels, and promote upcoming Women’s Studies events through different cultural manifestations.   The WSGSA is necessary to unite students from interdisciplinary fields to increase their overall contribution to FIU while also promoting solidarity while respecting our differences and building on our commonalities.
