Field of Study:
- The MA in English and American Literary and Cultural Studies combines advanced coursework with a semester abroad, for instance at one of our partner universities, and practical work experience, including an international internship. Students focus on a wide spectrum of English-language texts, ranging from medieval to contemporary literatures and cultures.
- A strong emphasis on cultural studies methodologies allows them to gain expertise in popular culture, gender studies or political rhetoric. The critical analysis of literary genres and visual media (photography, film, TV, and comics) plays a central role in the curriculum.
- Students can also choose from a variety of interdisciplinary courses as part of their electives (Studium Generale) and gain professional experience as teaching assistants or by contributing to research projects in the department.
