University of Southern California's Robert L. Kahn Music and Gender Studies Program

The University of Southern California's Robert L. Kahn Music and Gender Studies Program explores how music influences and reflects gender identities, roles, and experiences. It examines the social, cultural, and historical contexts of music through a gendered lens, fostering critical analysis of gender patterns in musical expression and consumption. The program encourages interdisciplinary study, integrating musicology, gender studies, and cultural analysis to deepen understanding of the ways music both shapes and is shaped by gender dynamics, promoting awareness and dialogue on gender equality and representation in musical contexts.
