Profile
The aim of the Master´s Programme in Intercultural Encounters (ICE) is to learn an appreciation of the many facets of intercultural contact. You will acquire theoretical knowledge and skills to examine complex social and cultural phenomena in different kinds of intercultural encounters. You will gain a profound understanding of how everyday local life is connected to international, multicultural and transnational issues. You will learn to analyse why and how conflicts arise for various cultural, political and religious reasons. You will gain insights into the possibilities of dialogue in conflict resolution. You will learn to communicate and evaluate information on intercultural encounters. Upon completing the programme, you will be able to act and grow in multidisciplinary and multicultural groups, and deal with issues of intercultural interaction, diversity, internationalisation, cultural management, the media and power. The Master’s Programme in Intercultural Encounters offers a multidisciplinary approach to intercultural issues. The programme offers courses grounded in the latest academic research, which enables you to apply a theoretical grasp to practical situations in a multicultural and internationally oriented working life. You can specialise in different local, national and supranational cultures in, for example, Asia, Latin America, the Middle East or North America. Further, the perspectives of the Study of Religions, Theology, Communication and Indigenous Studies provide you with regional, cultural and socio-political knowledge, and a variety of theoretical frameworks to understand the dynamics of intercultural encounters.
