PhD course ”Architecture, Landscape and Gender: Rethinking Theory, Methodology and Practice”

“I joined the course because it is one of the rare PhD courses focusing on gender – I wish we had more of these courses! I wanted to meet researchers within various disciplines who work with gender and interdisciplinary. The course has given me theoretical and methodological tools to study and analyze socio-technical infrastructures with a gender approach.”

– Valeria Borsotti, who participated in the course in autumn 2021.

Project leaders for Women in Danish Architecture Svava Riesto and Henriette Steiner invite you to an international PhD course ”Architecture, Landscape and Gender: Rethinking Theory, Methodology and Practice ” in autumn 2022. The course will be held at the University of Copenhagen’s Department of Earth Science and Nature Management at November 3-4 and November 16-18. The course is open to all PhD students who are interested in exploring issues of gender in their work with architecture, landscape and urban planning as a way of rethinking methodological, theoretical and pedagogical approaches.

”The course was interested in knowledge sharing either through reading, discussions, walks or presentations. The course has shown me an attentive, caring and nuanced approach to understand and engage my own privileges when I do research and writing. The course also develops relationships in ways that go beyond what you might consider work.”

– Sean Thomas Tyler, who participated in the course in autumn 2021.

 

The PhD course is structured as a PowerPoint-free zone, with dialogical workshops, where everyone contributes their special knowledge both individually and in groups. The course corresponds to 3 ECTS points.

We welcome PhD students from various disciplines and backgrounds, from design schools as well as from cultural or urban studies, art history, geography or other related disciplines.

 

We look forward to hearing from you!
