Location of Jacobs University Bremen

The Graduate Program Intercultural Humanities expresses Jacobs University’s commitment to the particular kinds of approaches that are characteristic of humanities learning. The humanities are one of the prominent places where the analysis and theoretical reflection of transcultural and intercultural phenomena and processes and their conceptualization take place. They offer the opportunity to understand the historical dimension of these issues and an approach to contemporary problems that transcends the disciplines.

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 internationalization 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.

A 3-year MA program "Intercultural Humanities" is offered as well.
