Towards Further Internationalization
Transatlantische Fiktionen – Transkulturelle Erinnerung / Transatlantic Fictions – Transnational Memory is a workshop taking place on April 29th and 30th with guests from Germany Carsten Gansel (Justus Liebig University, Giessen) and Christer Petersen (Brandenburg University of Technology, Cottbus). The workshop, organized by Cheryl Dueck and Florentine Strzelczyk, has been funded by UCI (University of Calgary International) to support the internationalization attempts of GSEA and its German graduate program to build a dual degree graduate program with the University of Giessen. The workshop serves two purposes: we will explore the idea of transatlantic fictions and transnational memory to see if this could be a viable umbrella under which we could train graduate students together, and we will discuss how to structure, administer and fund such a transatlantic dual degree graduate program. | New Courses
