Description

This course moves students toward the work, activism, and study they will conduct following graduation. It examines the academy and other workplaces as gendered locations, from theoretical and practical perspectives. Students learn strategies and techniques for success in applying for and working within graduate programs and workplaces. This capstone seminar accommodates discussions of students' specific current research and fosters knowledge mobilisation at conferences and meetings including the annual WGS Colloquium and, when appropriate, publication. The seminar gives students the opportunity to work collectively, listen, read purposively, and constructively critique and support each other's work.
