>
>The Faculty of Social Sciences at Lund University, Lund, Sweden is 
>pleased to announce a new international masters program in Gender 
>Studies, offered in English and starting in autumn 2007. Like all 
>Swedish university education, there is no tuition however masters 
>students are responsible for their own costs of living.
>
>This interdisciplinary social science master's programme aims to 
>provide students with the core elements through which current 
>feminist theories, in dialogue with established academic 
>disciplines, have contributed to the understanding of broader social 
>processes. The major objective of the programme is to improve the 
>student’s ability to critically examine, evaluate and discuss the 
>field’s most important theoretical perspectives and research 
>results. With these skills students will be able to formulate and 
>analyse interconnections between theory and practice concerning 
>gender, class, ethnicity and sexuality.
>
>Students will acquire a critical social science approach which 
>prepares them for postgraduate studies as well as professional work 
>in a variety of fields: health, organisational management, 
>development, communication, social policy among others.
>Teaching Staff
>The program is coordinated by the Centre for Gender Studies at Lund 
>University and the staff includes lecturers and professors from the 
>Faculty of Social Sciences. Teaching staff includes Diana Mulinari, 
>Marta Cuesta, , Peter Dahlgren, Tiina Rosenberg, Margot Bengtsson, 
>Sara Goodman, Johanna Esseveld  and others.

>divided into six courses of 15 credits each and a Master’s thesis of

>students to the main themes and issues of the programme. This is 
>followed by a course in the theory of science for the social

>and reproduced.
>
