Employment and teaching

From 1984 to 1986 Dorer worked as a freelance worker in the literature and radio play department of ORF . In 1987 she began her university career as a research assistant on the university course for public relations at the University of Vienna.

Research priorities

In 1994 Dorer and Marie-Luise Angerer published the first study book “Gender and Media” at Braumüller Verlag. Subsequently, she organized regular gender workshops with external lecturers and the administrative staff of the institute to promote issues specific to women and feminist teaching and research. In 1995 she succeeded in expanding feminist teaching in the curriculum and implementing it as an elective, making the Vienna Journalism Institute one of the first in the German-speaking region to regularly offer feminist media research in extensive form in the curriculum. With the changeover to the bachelor's and master's degree in 2003, this tradition is continued with a separate FEM module (lectures and exercises on feminist media research). Since 1995 she has supervised an extensive number of diploma theses on feminist media topics and, with external lecturers, is expanding the teaching and research focus on feminist media research at the Vienna Journalism Institute.
