GUTIERREZ MOZO, María Elia y PEREZ DEL HOYO, Raquel. Teaching and Gender: First Steps of the University of Alicante (Spain) in the Education of the Architect. Arquitectura y Urbanismo [online]. 2012, vol.33, n.3, pp. 52-69. ISSN 1815-5898.
This article describes the first steps towards gender mainstreaming in the teaching of the Architecture degree from the University of Alicante (UA), in Spain. This study is representative of the rest of the national territory. The article presents the pioneering experience developed in the area of knowledge of Architectural Composition that is part of the design block of the Architect syllabus. The set of laws and institutional framework on equality between women and men and specialized in the subject studies published recently are described. The article shows a comprehensive reading of the current situation of women architects in their profession, in particular the academician architects and students of Architecture. The gender approach in the university is in danger of appearing as an obsolete discourse out of the reality of the present time, however, is an unavoidable commitment because the working environment is of deep inequality and it is getting worse since the beginning of the crisis in 2008.
