What is covered in the core DEV seminar?
The core DEV seminar is offered as a special topics course housed in a different department/school each year (for 2005/06 it is housed in the School of Communications). This is done for administrative purposes only, and does not reflect the content of the course, which is multidisciplinary. A team of instructors from different disciplines provides a multidisciplinary introduction to the issues that confront scholars and practitioners in development, the concepts and methods that help illuminate the data, and the explanations of classic and new case studies in various fields. Emphasis is on student articulation of their interests in their projects and theses, and full discussion of the relation between specific fields and techniques of research and the wider and comparative scope of development studies. The goal is to give students a broad understanding of the major concepts, frameworks and issues that have shaped development practices over the past 50 years. There are no course prerequ
