Education of Intersectional Gender Studies
Intersectional Gender Studies offers education by teaching courses at the bachelor and master level of different study programs. In addition, they provide BSc- and MSc theses, research practices and internships.
Thesis
BSc- and MSc-students can do a gender thesis under supervision of one of the people working on intersectional gender studies. We recommend to at least follow one gender course as preparation. If this person is working in a group that is not part of your study programme, you can ask your supervisor to share the supervision to include her or his expertise as well.
Internship
There are several opportunities for students to do an internship with a focus on intersectional gender.
For students
As student you can contact any of the people working on intersectional gender studies to discuss internship possibilities with their existing contacts at organisations and institutions which focus on intersectional gender in a specific theme or are open to include this. Or you can find an internship on your own and contact one of the persons listed to be your (co-)supervisor during the internship.
For organisations, companies and institutions
As an organisation you can benefit from the expertise and skills of WUR-students who are in their second year of their Master education. If you are an organisation, company or institution and you have an internship possibility available, please contact us.
