on Anthropologically Connected
Program in Feminist Anthropology The graduate program in Feminist Anthropology was designed a decade ago in order to allow interested students to take advantage of areas of strength in the Anthropology Faculty as well as in our Women’s Studies Program. Among the courses open to graduate students in the program are: Motherhood and Reproduction, Anthropologies and Sexualities, Women's Roles in Cross-Cultural Perspective, Gender and Development Studies, and Feminist Ethnography. Recently students enrolled in the Feminist Anthropology track have studied women’s health issues in China and in Nicaragua, Chuukese women and grassroots Catholic organizations, the gender politics of women in Orisa cults in Milwaukee, transgendered people in San Francisco, Cherokee women in North Carolina and Oklahoma, and lesbian bar culture in the Midwest. The Anthropology Department has identified areas of shared research interests that cross the traditional subfields and build on some of the Department's long-time strengths. Shared interests directly relating to broad public issues include: Gender, Sexuality, Health and Demography; Cultural Politics and Representations; and Politics, Economy and Environment—Past and Present. The mission of International
Programs is to internationalize the undergraduate, graduate and
professional curricula at the University; promote international
scholarship and educational exchange; enhance the Iowa experience
for international students and scholars; further international
knowledge and activities across the state; and, help create a community
and society responsive to the increasingly international needs
and obligations of citizenship. The International Classroom Journey,
for example, is a resource for internationalizing eastern Iowa’s
K-12 classrooms by providing teachers with a variety of new opportunities
to take their students on a voyage of discovery. The services offered
include: classroom visits by international “tour guide” teams,
supplementary curriculum materials, field trip opportunities, Iowa
Communications Network presentations, and professional development
opportunities. International Forum for US Studies Founded in 1995 with a grant from the Rockefeller Foundation, the Forum sponsors research residencies, faculty seminars, colloquium series, international conferences and institutional linkages, and guest teaching opportunities for distinguished scholars from outside the United States. The Forum, for example, is developing ongoing linkages with institutions outside the United States, such as the Indo-American Centre for International Studies where work on U.S. culture and politics is flourishing. College
of Public Health The College seeks to promote health and prevent injury and illness through commitment to education and training, excellence in research, innovation in policy development, and devotion to public health practice. The Department of Community and Behavioral Health promotes health and quality of life by developing, evaluating, and disseminating evidence-based practices (through research, training and innovative policy). The College's Educational Outreach Programs include a series of presentations designed to provide interesting and useful education on important health topics for citizens in selected Iowa communities. College
of Dentistry The College's mission rest upon a tripartite foundation reflecting the full spectrum of collegiate activity: (1) Education of students as general practitioners and dental specialists, (2) Research into all aspects of oral and dental disease and the delivery of health care, and (3) Service to the community, the state, and the profession. The Center for Leadership Training in Pediatric Dentistry strives to improve the oral health of infants, children, adolescents and their families with special emphasis given to improving the oral health of children with special health care needs and children of low-income backgrounds or with limited access to oral health services.
