GSFS 227 - Introduction to Feminist Science Studies

FC SSCI
4 credits
This course investigates the scientific production of race, gender, and sexuality, particularly in the biosciences. We will consider such questions as: What is objectivity and why does it matter to scientific research? How do cultural assumptions about race, gender, sexuality, and the body shape scientific knowledge production in different historical periods? Sources include theories and critiques of science, historical and contemporary science publications, and the Science section of the NY Times.
