Courses
The National Research School organizes a general course in gender research with teachers from the different centres for gender research in Norway. In addition, the Research School hosts various workshops. The Research School also keeps all the Nordic universities informed about all the local PhD-courses focusing on gender.
The courses offer participants the opportunity to specialize in feminist and gender theory as well as learn how to apply this knowledge in their dissertations. The participants will also get to know other PhD students who do research on various themes within gender studies. This will help them expand their networks and find likeminded individuals to share experiences with.
