Working group 'New Materialism'

Since 2010, interested scientists have been meeting regularly at the Department Methods of Education and Social Research with Specific Consideration of Gender Studies / Sociology, to discuss their research projects and qualification work. Initially in cooperation with the Institute for Media and Cultural Studies of the Heinrich-Heine-University Düsseldorf, a network for academics in qualification stages has been established, which deals with innovative methods and cultural and social science theoretical approaches in the field of precarization research and queer theory and has organised workshops.

Since autumn 2016, this format has been transformed into an inter- and transdisciplinary working group 'New Materialism', which discusses current approaches to queer-feminist science research, theories and methodologies. The open group meets once or twice a semester to discuss joint reading.

Interested parties are cordially invited. To register, please contact Dr.in Lisa Krall, contact: lkrall[at]uni-koeln.de or you can directly sign up for the mailing list yourself via https://lists.uni-koeln.de/mailman/listinfo/diskussionsrunde-new-materialism

Doktorand*innen Netzwerk gender und queer

Das Doktorand*innen Netzwerk gender und queer wurde ins Leben gerufen, um einer Vereinzelung von Promotionsprojekten im genuin interdisziplinären Forschungsfeld der Gender und Queer Studies entgegenzuwirken. Es versteht sich als ein offenes Forum, das allen Doktorand*innen der Universität zu Köln die Chance bietet, ihre genderspezifischen Forschungen im fruchtbaren Austausch zu verfolgen. Das Netzwerk wird von Doktorand*innen selbst organisiert und von den Teilnehmenden gestaltet und findet ohne Betreuer_innen und professorale Mitglieder statt. Im Rahmen der selbstorganisierten Treffen können Dissertationsprojekte diskutiert sowie grundlegende Texte und Begrifflichkeiten erarbeitet werden.

Interested parties are cordially invited. Please contact Dr.in Lisa Krall, contact: lkrall[at]uni-koeln.de
