Founded in fall 1999, the Center for the Study of Gender and Sexuality (CSGS) at New York University conducts a broad interdisciplinary investigation of gender and sexuality as keys to understanding human experience.

We accomplish our work through a research institute and undergraduate academic programming. We are among the few centers in the U.S. with a named emphasis on both gender and sexuality. We fully integrate the study of gender and sexuality in our core curriculum; moreover, we insistently extend our view beyond U.S. borders. Because of the analytic pressure we put on both categories in a transnational frame, we are changing the ways in which gender and sexuality are discussed in academia and with the public at large.

Opportunities, Grants & Fellowships

Visiting Scholars:

 
Visiting Scholars are faculty and independent scholars from outside NYU who are resident at the Center for the Study of Gender and Sexuality for a limited time to conduct research.
 
NYU’s location in the heart of Greenwich Village and its library collections and other research resources offer unique opportunities for research. The faculty at NYU offers a dazzling array of colleagues with whom to collaborate.
 
Visiting scholars typically spend one to two semesters at NYU. At present, we are unable to offer office space to Visiting Scholars. There is, however, limited access to fax, copier, computer and internet. Library access and borrowing privileges are provided.
 
Visiting Scholars are expected to participate in the life of the Center by attending CSGS events, including regularly scheduled lunch talks in which Visiting Scholars may be asked to present current research projects. There are also opportunities for Visiting Scholars to meet as a group to discuss their research.

Sexularism: Religious Freedom American Style

In partnership with several Italian scholars, UCSBs department of religious studies gathered experts to discuss the way religious thought intersects with political legislation and action, particularly in the realm of sexuality. On this installment of Church, Sex, and the Public Sphere: Italy and the United States, Ann Pellegrini, Professor of Religious Studies at New York University, argues that the government should stay out of the regulation of morality Series (Voices, 11/2008).
