The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and
Transgender (LGBT) Studies
MINOR
Towson University was
the first university in Maryland to recognize LGBT Studies as a
legitimate academic field. Students can pursue an interdisciplinary
minor in LGBT Studies as a way to steep themselves in the history,
politics, psychology and culture of the LGBT community and its
development.
Mission Statement
The Lesbian, Gay,
Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) Studies Program provides an academic
foundation for understanding LGBT issues from an interdisciplinary and
multicultural perspective. The LGBT program represents a growing field
of scholarship that is in the forefront of developing theoretical and
methodological innovations in interdisciplinary studies.
