Arts 3000, Internship in Arts, when the placement is with an organization working on gender and women's issues, will count for credit in Gender and Women's Studies. In addition, some departments offer honours seminars that may be pertinent. Please consult the relevant department for more details. Please consult the Coordinator of Gender and Women's Studies for the most recent list of core courses. Because Minors are subject to University-wide regulations, courses on gender and women offered in other Faculties, such as ED 5181 Feminist Theory and Education and NURS 4274 Iconography of the Nurse, may be counted as core courses for the Gender and

Women's Studies Minor, although they may not be eligible for Arts Faculty credit. Arts students seeking credit for Gender and Women's Studies courses outside their Faculty must ensure that they have Arts Faculty approval before they register for such courses.
