It is International Women’s Day across the world, and to celebrate we are focussing on three of the best postgraduate Gender and Women’s Study programmes at UK universities.

University of Sussex
An MA in Gender Studies at the University of Sussex will provide students with advanced grounding in feminist theory and methodology.
