Ämnesnätverket i genusvetenskap för arbetet med den nya utbildnings- och examensstrukturen

Abstract

The Centre for Gender Studies at Lund University has been given the responsibility of creating a network within Gender Studies in Sweden to facilitate the implementation of the Bologna Declaration of Higher Education. The Gender Studies network for the implementation of the new structure of education and degrees in Sweden has included all the departments/centres that offer courses on Bachelor s level and beyond. The network has had ten individual meetings and one large concluding meeting The network has consisted of ten participating departments from ten universities. The network has been focused its work upon learning outcomes, student mobility and inter-university co-operation We have outlined the changes carried out in relation to the new educational structure, the formulating of learning outcomes and the creation of the new advanced level of education, i.e. the masters level. The network has concluded that we differ in some ways as to how we state the expected learning outcomes, though the differences do not seem to pose an obstacle to student mobility. Four of the project participants offer education programmes at an advanced level and here we have noted a slight difference in the access requirements. We believe that the department/centres that have developed education at the advanced level can contribute to others, with advice and as models. The network has brought about discussions and an exchange of ideas and now as the network project has completed it work, by far the most obvious conclusion is that a dialogue within our field of education is continuously necessary.
