A new online course: Physics and Gender
Why is it that physics, which is considered objective and not affected by who is doing the research, teaching, and learning, is so dominated by men among its practitioners?
Why do some groups of people select not to come to physics – or to leave the area?
Could the explanation be found in the culture of our labs and institutions? Or is it deeper – in the subject and how it is (re)presented? How do we make physics more welcoming for a larger part of the population?
We are now offering a course that is addressing these and similar questions. It is a joint project by Stockholm and Lund Universities, supported by NordForsk and administrated by Lund University.
The course is open to all interested students and personnel at universities in Scandinavia.. All compulsory parts of the course is offered online, but we plan to offer one opportunity to meet face-to-face.
The deadline for application is February 2nd, 2023!
