The study of women and gender has affected every scholarly area, from history to health care.  This course explores how feminist questions and methods of analysis have transformed scholarship across the academic disciplines, including African American Studies, English, History, Philosophy, Political Science, Psychology, Sociology, Health, Medicine, Music, and the Law.  Each week a U-M professor will give a one-hour public lecture on how gender and feminist scholarship has transformed her discipline and how her discipline has shaped gender and feminist scholarship.  The lecture will be followed by class discussion with the lecturer, facilitated by the director of the Women’s Studies Program and the director of the Institute for Research on Women and Gender.  Assignments will ask students to reflect on the role gender scholarship plays in their own area of concentration, as well as to analyze gender scholarship across disciplines by means of a C-Tools chatroom, two short papers (4-5 pages) and one final essay (8-10 pages).
