The Graduate Consortium in Women’s Studies (GCWS) is a pioneering effort by faculty at six degree-granting institutions in the Boston area and the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study to advance women's studies scholarship. The Consortium pursues its mission through an ongoing series of team-taught graduate seminars, interdisciplinary faculty workshops, and other opportunities for scholarly and administrative collaboration. The Consortium membership includes Boston College, Brandeis University, Harvard University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Northeastern University, and Tufts University. Students enrolled in graduate programs at our member schools are invited to apply for admission to Consortium sponsored courses.
