Jacob University Stipend
Jacobs University Bremen,
Germany, offers a number of MA and PhD stipends in
Intercultural Humanities. Faculty teaching in the
program include specialists on China, South Asia and
Southeast Asia.
Short description of the program: Intercultural and
transcultural issues are becoming increasingly
significant for political, cultural and everyday life on
a macro and a micro level. This is due to processes
related to internationalizatio n and globalization and
the cultural changes and conflicts caused by them. For
this reason inter- and transcultural issues have become
a new focus of academic research.
The Graduate Program Intercultural Humanities is a
unique and innovative combined graduate program in
History, History and Theory of Art, and Literature with
a special emphasis on intercultural encounters,
cross-cultural transfers, cultural comparison, and
transcultural universals.
The Graduate Program Intercultural Humanities provides
students with insights into the theories and methods
used to investigate and describe inter- and
transcultural processes and phenomena. Students become
acquainted with the particularities of research in
History, History and Theory of Art, and Literature as
well as with interdisciplinary approaches applied in
intercultural studies in the humanities.
By studying exemplary cases of intercultural encounters,
cross-cultural transfers and transcultural universals
students learn how these theories and methods are
applied in each of the fields and, in a second step,
across the fields. In particular, they acquire an
understanding of the historical dimension of the
relevant processes and phenomena and an awareness of the
specific problems involved in interactions between
Western and Non-Western cultures, cultural and aesthetic
products and societies.
