Presentation
The aim of the course is to deepen and develop knowledge in the area of modern literatures and cultures. Students may choose to specialize in one of the main European languages (German, Spanish, French and English), but the course is not limited to European literatures and cultures, as it has significant components in North American and Ibero-American studies.
The course also aims to develop theoretical and methodological skills that form the basis for the development of innovative research projects in the respective areas of specialization.
In an interdisciplinary environment, marked by themes that are transversal to contemporary human sciences, the course allows students to acquire skills in the specific area of research (problematisation and definition of objects of study, capacity of interpretation, selection and collection of bibliographical or documental information), while developing the ability to communicate the knowledge acquired in a clear manner to both specialist and non-specialist audiences.
Areas Of expertise
- German Studies
