About
This course is designed to offer advanced graduate students an intensive exposure to the theories, practices, and processes of gender studies as a profession. In general, the course offers students a practical structure for such professional activities as writing abstracts for conferences and grants, turning a seminar paper into a publishable article, approaching editors of journals and presses, writing job letters, compiling cv's and teaching portfolio's, giving conference papers and job talks, and applying for grants, post-docs, and faculty positions. The course is organized thematically according to the instructor's purview and will vary in its specific content and scope from semester to semester. Practicum credit is available for students who elect to participate in extra-curricular research, conference, or writing activities (as determined by the instructor teaching the course).
