This course welcomes all undergraduate students, both women and men, across all faculties.The course aims to develop an understanding of the hidden and subtle forms of discrimination that women continue to face when pursuing a career, by critically examining socio-cultural views about working women and their professional lives reflected in media representations.We will examine crucial barriers to gender equality in the labour market that may seem like common sense or have been repackaged as women empowerment. We will also analyse media texts, such as career advice given to women, and uncover ideological bias that preserve the status quo by applying various linguistic concepts and approaches to these written and spoken texts.
