We are pleased to invite you to an information session about the WASC-accredited Women’s Spirituality Master’s of Arts Program (WSMA) at the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology. This is a graduate-level program for women who find themselves at a pivotal “crossroads” where they feel life should have more purpose and meaning. <\/p>\n
The Program<\/h3>\n
Our program is designed for adult learners who have a passionate interest in the historical, cultural, philosophical, and theoretical roots of a women-centered spirituality; as well as the practical applications which its research, personal exploration, and creative expression inspire. Our graduates use this learning as a catalyst for change within themselves and the world. Many experts believe a recession is a good time to return to graduate school, and the benefits of a genuinely transformative educational experience last forever.<\/p>\n
Woman-Centered<\/b>: The program explores and celebrates women’s history, feminist perspectives, spiritual practices, and women’s contributions to society, past and present.<\/p>\n
Acclaimed Faculty<\/b>: Internationally-known leaders in the field of women’s spiritual leadership work closely with students to prepare them for scholarly research and community leadership. <\/p>\n
Program Curriculum<\/b>: Innovative curriculum integrates scholarly research, spirituality, embodiment, activism, ritual, and the arts. <\/p>\n
Social Action<\/b>: A community practicum allows students to contribute to the community by bringing aspects of the Sacred Feminine into a variety of organizations.<\/p>\n
Cohort Learning<\/b>: A collaborative educational model wherein a small number of graduate students share the same core classes throughout the program and build a supportive learning community.<\/p>\n
Low Residency<\/b>: Designed for busy women, the program entails one or two weekends per month (only one for students at a distance) for two years, with summers off.\n<\/p>\n
