Course Profile

Graduates of Master's Programme in Women’s and Gender Studies possess broad knowledge in the fields of feminist studies, human/women’s rights, minority policies, gender representations in culture and media, men and masculinities, postcolonial studies, feminist literature and philosophy. They command an advanced and critical knowledge of contemporary gender theories, apply different theoretical perspectives in the analysis of gender issues and critically scrutinize different standpoints and feminist empirical evidence through reasoned and coherent argument, demonstrating the awareness of themselves as situated experts. They are recognized as specialists of equal opportunity policies, with particular regard to policies enforced by the European Commission, but also, they are prepared to deploy them in the Polish context. As a result, they are able to provide valuable assistance in the development of many projects funded by the European Community.
