Gender Studies is an interdisciplinary program, so it always includes several courses from different areas, such as gender theory, feminist research and the history of feminist thought.

The structure of the MA programs vary on host university. For example, the MA program in Gender Studies of the University of Stirling includes key feminist debates about ontology, epistemology and methodology and courses of Quantitative Data Analysis and Qualitative Data Analysis. The MA program in Gender Studies of the University of Leeds, Canada, consists of two massive modules: Researching Gender and Theorising Gender.
