DSC 0011

KANITA offers postgraduate studies programmes for those interested in pursuing women’s or gender studies by research. Upon completion of the studies, students are awarded with Master of Social Sciences (Gender Studies) or Doctor of Philosophy degrees. Programmes are designed to produce postgraduates who are gender-sensitive in various work cultures and organisations, equipping those from various basic disciplines with knowledge and analytical skills of looking at the social world through a more comprehensive and inclusive manner.

The postgraduate programmes at KANITA aim at developing and enhancing candidates’ analytical and practical skills in their chosen disciplines through the use of the gender lense. This lense operates through the idea that gender matters to structures, theories and practices in any discipline that the lived realities of sections of society, particularly women, are highly pertinent subject of deep inquiry.

Postgraduate candidates may choose to research on any topic within KANITA's research thrust areas. We also welcome proposal for research beyond the thrust areas subject to available expertise amongst our academic staff. KANITA's research thrust areas are:

Health
Policy and Law
Sustainable Development
Leadership and Governance

Bachelor’s degrees with Honours in any fields, including Applied Sciences, Health Sciences and Engineering from accredited local or foreign universities.
