La UGR ofertará cinco nuevos títulos en 2012 pero se queda sin Periodismo

Escrito por

Estudiar Periodismo en la Universidad de Granada (UGR) seguirá siendo una asignatura pendiente en el currículum de la institución académica. El Consejo Andaluz de Universidades desinfló ayer las expectativas de la ciudad al desvelar el nuevo mapa de carreras para los próximos años. Un documento en el que aparecen cinco nuevos grados pero en el que no está Periodismo.

Energías Renovables, Biotecnología, Estudios Asiáticos, Criminología y cinco ramas de Ingeniería Informática son los nuevos títulos que se podrán estudiar dentro de, al menos, un par de años en Granada. La elección, según el propio Consejo Andaluz de Universidades, se basa en la apuesta por los sectores estratégicos para la comunidad, aquellos que tienen más demanda actualmente del tejido social y productivo en Andalucía. Siguiendo este criterio está claro que la demanda de periodistas en el mercado no justifica la apertura de más facultades. Pero Granada tenía interés en conseguir esta titulación que actualmente en Andalucía sólo se cursa en Sevilla y Málaga.

La reorganización de las enseñanzas universitarias para adaptarse a Europa y, por tanto, la conversión de Comunicación Audiovisual de una titulación de segundo ciclo en un grado, eran un buen caldo de cultivo para que llegara Periodismo y completara esta rama de saber.

La vicerrectora de Grado y Posgrado, Lola Ferre, no dudó en mostrar ayer su decepción ante la decisión final de eliminar la ansiada titulación de Periodismo, si bien adelantó que la UGR volverá a solicitar la llegada de la titulación en 2012.

La Universidad de Granada había solicitado cerca de diez nuevas carreras aunque finalmente sólo ha conseguido cinco y dos de ellas ya existían. Criminología se transforma a partir de una titulación ya existente e Ingeniería Informática consigue 5 especialidades en lugar de las 3 que tenía.

Poco después de conocer cuáles eran las nuevas titulaciones universitarias, Ferre reconocía que la apuesta por los nuevos estudios (Energías Renovables y Estudios Asiáticos) reforzarán la oferta universitaria de Granada. «En el ámbito de las lenguas Granada ha sido siempre pionera en Andalucía, y la llegada de los Estudios Asiáticos refuerzan la posición de la UGR en este ámbito», valoró.

En cualquier caso a la Universidad todavía le queda un largo camino por delante para poder abrir a sus alumnos estas nuevas carreras. Tienen que ser aprobadas por la ANECA, hay que desarrollar los planes de estudios, conseguir el apoyo docente necesario y analizar la viabilidad de los estudios.

En Andalucía el curso universitario 2008-09 fue el último antes de que comenzaran a impartirse titulaciones de grado de acuerdo con el nuevo marco educativo europeo. Las universidades tienen hasta el próximo curso para completar la adaptación de todas sus titulaciones al nuevo marco europeo de acuerdo con las directrices marcadas por la Declaración de Bolonia. De esta forma, durante el próximo curso 2010/11 la Universidad de Granada ofertará 57 grados y 78 masters, una cifra sólo superada por la Universidad de Sevilla.

According To A Study, Change In Social Roles Of Men And Women May Increase Gender Violence

Escrito por

Changes in social roles of men and women may cause the increase of gender violence. When sexist men feel their power threatened within their relationship, they may use violence as a way to restore their lost power.

Thus, violence becomes either an instrument to control their threatened power and a way to restore it. Currently, many men «feel threatened by the change that their relationship with women has undergone. They are unable to understand their relationship with women in terms of equality despite the prevailing social rules».

Such conclusions were drawn from a research conducted by Prof. Mª Carmen Herrera Enríquez, from the Department of Social Psychology and Methodology of Behavioural Science of the University of Granada, coordinated by Prof. Francisca Expósito Jiménez and Miguel C. Moya Morales. This study was undertaken to obtain an answer to the following question: «Why do certain men batter certain women?»

The research conducted in the University of Granada employed a psycho-social perspective based on two factors: sexism and power imbalance in marriage. Concretely, the author’s purpose was to get a more thorough perspective and so she tried to investigate to what extent men’s perception of losing power may be a cause of gender violence. As Mª Carmen Herrera states: «it is not only the person’s behaviour what causes violence, but also the social context and its influence on men’s behaviour».

Women forgo their ambitions

According to the University of Granada, our society has a problem: women accept benevolent sexism which is defined by the author as «sexism with positive connotations, care to and paternalism towards women» may lead them to forego their ambitions to avoid conflicts with their partners. In other words: Women who are afraid that their husbands will react violently against them if they do not stick to their traditional role opt for forgoing equality in exchange for security.

Benevolent sexism «can be deemed as a lens that distorts reality due to its positive tone that weakens women’s will in situations of inequality, discrimination or violence against them. This behaviour makes individuals accept this type of situation.

This research confirms the relevance of ideological factors in gender-based violence. It emphasizes the importance of power in sentimental relationships and its influence on men’s reactions in an effort to maintain or restore their lost/threatened power.

The results obtained from this study may be essential in the prevention of and action against gender violence. The author has not only revealed the importance to the aggressor of ideological factors, but she has also highlighted the role of benevolent sexism in making women become potential victims.

Why Men Opt For Domestic Violence?

Escrito por

We may have put the status of women on the pedestal but a glimpse into reality, shows a different story. Male chauvinism still exists and if it at any point of time hurted, men usually are reported to use violence to restore their lost power, according to a University of Granada study.

The study also found that women threatened of their husbands violent behavior on their ignoring traditional role opt for forgoing equality in exchange for security.

Prof. M Carmen Herrera Enríquez, says,“ many men feel threatened by the change that their relationship with women has undergone. They are unable to understand their relationship with women in terms of equality despite the prevailing social rules».

The research employed a psycho-social perspective based on two factors: sexism and power imbalance in marriage.

Precisely the author’s purpose was to get a more thorough insight and so she tried to investigate to what extent men’s perception of losing power may be a cause of gender violence.

She came to the conclusion that it is not only about lost power but also the social context that influence men’s behaviour. Most of the men have the feeling that a minor submition to his wife, will make him outcast in the men’s world. To show the world that his wife listens to him and that the family is ruled by him boosts his ego.

This study talks about a selective set of men but these men do not always opt for violence. Till the time he is the master of the house, he can be one of the most loving husband.
