We hereby present the 2001 program of the Sixth Summer Institute on
Sexuality, Culture, and Society, organized by the Universiteit of Am-
sterdam.
We are encouraging advanced students, primarily PhD and MA students
in the socio-cultural sciences and professionals working for NGO's,
to apply for participation in the Summer Institute, July 1 - July 26,
2001. The Summer Institute is an intensive four-week summer program
which focuses on the study of sexuality across cultures and is taught
by an international faculty team.
The scientific directors are Dr. Carole Vance (Columbia University)
and Dr. Han ten Brummelhuis (Universiteit van Amsterdam).
The institute was founded in 1995, and has enjoyed five years of un-
paralleled success. Since then over a hundred students from twenty-
seven different countries have participated in our courses. Nearly a
quarter of the participants have been professionals working for
NGO's. The other participants came from such diverse educational
backgrounds as the social sciences (anthropology, sociology), psy-
chology, women's studies, history, public health and human sexuality
studies.
We expect a 2001 class of approximately 30-35 students. The Insti-
tute's classes are intensive small group seminars, with discussions,
lecturers and guest lecturers by prominent people in the field. The
details and latest information are announced on the website.
Applications must be addressed to the Universiteit van Amsterdam at
the below address. You can visit our web-site for an application
form.
Please feel free to share this information.
Sincerely yours,
