Gender research studies within technoscience is to study (techno)scientific production of knowledge and problem solving with a feminist perspective. This identification means to fundamentally problematize science in a complex and integrating way and to develop transformatory capacities for technoscience to be able to adopt the challenges of today and tomorrow - locally, nationally and globally.

More complex understandings of knowledge processes creates necessary conditions for getting in close contact with possibilities for and obstacles against transformation in the modern research complex.

The department of Gender & Technology at Luleå University of Technology is unique not only for Sweden but for the whole of the Nordic region, as it is located within a faculty of technology. This situation holds a potential for something quite different and new. Far more possibilities can be utilized when the research and education is integrated within technoscientific knowledge production.
