FACTSHEET MASTER’S PROGRAMME
G E N D E R ST UD I E S By choosing Utrecht University to pursue your graduate studies, you are becoming part of a world-class research environment. It is our great pleasure to welcome you into this dynamic international community that we hope will be both intellectually and socially rewarding to you. As a MA student, you are part of Utrecht University’s Graduate Gender Programme, a rich network of Masters and Ph.D. students and faculty from all over the Netherlands and the world. The Graduate Gender Programme consists of various components, including the two-year Research Master in Gender Studies and the one-year Master in Gender Studies. We also take part in the EU Erasmus Mundus Master in Women’s and Gender Studies (GEMMA). In addition, we host the Netherlands Research School of Gender Studies (NOG), which is the national platform for gender research and teaching by faculty members from various Dutch universities, offering a highly successful training programme and environment for postgraduate and Ph.D. students. Throughout our one-year Master’s programme, we hope you will be both inspired and challenged in your engagement with a diverse range of topics related to gender and postcolonial studies. Given the wealth of courses, lectures, events, and activities offered by the Graduate Gender Programme, we are confident that our multidisciplinary approach will be stimulating and engaging to you as you embark upon your MA studies. It is also our hope that you make this programme your own, forging a path ahead that builds upon your experiences and interests and opens you up to future academic and professional possibilities. We hope that any general questions about the programme can be answered using this guide and the Programme Book. If you cannot find your answer here and have any further questions, please have a look at our website or contact the programme coordinators Jamila Mascat and Magdalena Górska.
