The course in brief

Presentation

The course does not provide curricula, but pathways, i.e. recommended curricula:

  • Translation (literature, translation and adaptation),
  • Didactics (language teaching, intercultural education),
  • Media (economics of the culture industry, intersemiotic rewriting),

All pathways include the possibility of undertaking work placements, attending a Literary Theory and Cultural Studies workshop and spending a period abroad on Erasmus. The Translation and Media pathways also include the opportunity to try your hand at a translation workshop.
