OpenDescription
Examines how science as epistemology and its accompanying practices participate in, create, and are created by understandings of race, gender, sexuality, and nation.
Class Notes
This course is now open to all majors. No science background is required.
Expanded Course Description:
In this course, we will think critically and creatively together about the ways in which science as a practice and a way of knowing gives rise to particular and perhaps peculiar ways of experiencing bodies as individual, raced, gendered, and even 'specied'. We will explore a variety of issues in contemporary science and technology, with an emphasis on body and embodiment ? that is, ways of knowing and experiencing the body within and beyond science, and within and beyond race and gender
