女性研究(Women's Studies)

麻省理工學院的女性研究課程是個跨領域的大學部課程，針對女性、性別研究提供了學術架構和寬廣的學術社群。女性研究課程利用不同學科或多門學科的工具來探索性別議題，女性研究課程的目標是希望協助麻省理工學院的學生能夠更瞭解知識和價值觀如何因為不同的社會變數而呈現不同的風貌。在這探詢的過程中，學生不只可以學習如何藉由性別來分析，更可以探究在自己生活中性別代表的意義，藉此獲得更多的個人和智識上的成長。雖然性別是每個主題的中心，性別研究必須要注意到性別、種族、階級、宗教、國籍和其它社會分類中的連結；不同的主題會在這種連結上有不同的火花產生。

對於那些在性別研究某些領域有創見，同時又有興趣瞭解領域之外的新知的教師來說，這系列的課程規劃同時也是重要的資源中心。

女性研究的課程規劃提供了大學部的學程，包括了核心課程和其它幾個科系的相關科目。學生們可以申請集中選修、副修或是特別申請主修女性研究。我們有超過三十名教師和這系列課程有合作，他們的領域有建築、歷史、比較媒體研究、腦與認知科學、文學和政治學等等。女性研究的課程在2002-2003學年之間提供了22門課程，大約有三百名學生參與。

The MIT Program in Women's Studies is an interdisciplinary undergraduate program, providing an academic framework and broad-based community for scholarly inquiry focusing on women, gender, and sexuality. Exploring gender with the tools of different, and often multiple, disciplines, Women's Studies subjects strive to help MIT students better understand how knowledge and value take different forms depending on a variety of social variables. In the course of their inquiry, students not only learn how to use gender as a category of analysis, but also reflect on the manifestation of gender in their own lives, leading to a range of personal and intellectual discoveries. Although gender is a central component of every subject, the study of gender requires attention to connections between gender, sexuality, race, class, religion, nationality, and other social categories; different subjects shed light on different aspects of such connections.

The Program is also an important resource for faculty with an advanced knowledge of gender studies within particular disciplines who are interested in learning more across disciplinary lines; it also welcomes faculty who have an emerging interest in the field of Women's Studies.

The Program in Women's Studies offers an undergraduate curriculum consisting of core classes and cross-listed subjects from several departments. Students may concentrate, minor, and petition for a major departure in WS. There are more than 30 faculty members who are affiliated with the Program from fields as diverse as architecture, history, comparative media studies, brain and cognitive sciences, literature, and political science, for example. The Program in Women's Studies offered 22 subjects during the academic year 2002-2003, with approximately 300 students enrolled.
