Beginning in Fall 2024, CREGS will become a scholarship hub with the Health Equity Institute at SFSU, with a continued focus on gender and sexuality. We are planning new scholarly opportunities for faculty and students, and campus events such as seminars and book talks. More details to come!
Past Research Projects
CREGS has a long history of conducting pioneering, faculty driven research, focused on contemporary issues in the field of gender and sexuality. CREGS research utilizes a variety of methodological approaches including: qualitative, quantitative, scale development and intervention methods. Faculty are committed to addressing the intersections of social justice, health inequities and feminist perspectives in their work and implementing this work through collaborations with community service organizations. The research at CREGS reaches many different, and often underrepresented, populations locally, nationally and internationally.
Past Seminar Series
Each semester, CREGS hosts two to three seminars open to students and faculty campus wide. The seminars address a range of topics and disciplines central to studies of gender and sexuality. Whenever possible, we feature CREGS and SF State faculty and showcase the innovative and creative work being done on campus. This program also works in collaboration with student programs on campus such as EROS and QTRC where we have shown films, provided informational workshops and hosted creative events. We also collaborate with the Kahn-Hut seminar that stems from the Sociology Department.
Past Mentoring Groups
Mentoring faculty is a priority for CREGS and there have been several iterations of writing groups, writing retreats and peer reviews of our work. These groups have led to collaborations and funded grants with faculty at HEI and other departments at SF State. The peer reviews are instrumental in creating high level proposals and manuscripts as well as being an important tool for faculty to learn methodological and writing strategies that maximize impact.
