The discussions on science and knowledge production emanate from different areas of science – the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences, all of which are represented in the course.

Furthermore, questions such as: how do we do research? where do we stand as researchers?, are discussed in the course, in relation to feminist theories on science and knowledge which bring not only gender but also race, class, sexuality, and ablebodiedness to the forefront. These problematizations of production of research, which are thoroughly dealt with in the course, include both the subject of research, chosen methods and theories and the researcher themselves.
