Introduction to Culture Studies (UK & Ireland), WS 2009/2010
In this course we examine the geology, geography, history and culture of the United Kingdom and Ireland.
The course runs for one semester and is worth 3 Credit Points for BA (VSLT) and Erasmus students; students studying for a Diploma (DÜ/DD) can obtain the certificate of successful participation (Schein) that they need to register for the Vordiplomprüfung (Englisch 1.FS) or Diplomprüfung (Englisch 2.FS). To successfully complete the course, students need to attend regularly and pass a written examination, which will be held during the normal class time in either the second-last or the last week of lectures, depending on what the majority of participants prefer. It is necessary to register for the examination. BA students must register electronically (online, via HIS-POS); registration closes two weeks before the examination date. Diploma students register for the examination by writing their name on a list that will be available in class, or sending an email to the course leader.
All students taking the course should make sure that their correct e-mail address is on the course mailing list. It would be appreciated if students could include the word “[culture]” (in square brackets) in the subject field of any emails addressed to the course leader.
This section will be updated frequently, so please check back regularly.
