Introduction

Welcome to the 2002-2003 Harvard University Guide to Gender-Related Courses, Programs, and Other Resources. This year’s guide was a collaborative effort between the Women and Public Policy Program, John F. Kennedy School of Government, and the Committee on Degrees in Women’s Studies, Faculty of Arts and Sciences.

This guide was designed to help students, faculty, and other interested parties begin to identify programs, courses, and other resources that relate to the study of women and gender throughout the University. Most of the information in the guide was provided directly by the individual programs via their web sites and/or the 2002-03 course catalogs. This is the third edition of this resource, and it is our hope that this guide will grow each year as more programs and courses related to the study of gender are created at Harvard University. We attempted to be as inclusive and as thorough as possible, but we are aware of the possibility that inaccuracies or omissions may inadvertently exist. Please contact the schools or programs directly for complete course listings. Any changes or additions should be brought to the attention of the Women and Public Policy Program (617-495-8756, wappp@harvard.edu), the Committee on Degrees in Women’s Studies (617-495-9199, womenstu@fas.harvard.edu), or via the feedback survey included on page 39.

Thank you,

Note: Courses in the guide were designated “of primary interest” or “of related interest” based on the course descriptions in the 2002-03 course catalogs for each school. Primary interest courses focus predominantly on the study of women and gender, while those of related interest may only have one component listed in the description that addresses the study of gender. Occasionally, the designation was not exact, and a subjective decision was made during editing as to which category a course was assigned. Course descriptions and schedules can be found in the course catalogs, or on the course catalog web sites listed with each program. Please direct any questions to WAPPP or CWS.
