Mediterranean Studies

INTRODUCTION

Our Institute offers a unique graduate programme in Mediterranean Studies (first launched in the academic year of 2014/2015) intended for both foreign and Polish students. All courses are taught in English.

WHO SHOULD APPLY AND WHY?

The applicant should hold an undergraduate degree (B.A. or equivalent) in arts, philology or social sciences, with a very good command of English. Modelled on world-class degree programs, Mediterranean Studies offers a unique combination of interdisciplinary theory and practice as well as provides opportunities for gaining hands-on experience in culture tourism.

Mediterranean Studies is intended for all those willing to extend their knowledge about cultural identity of contemporary Europe and its heritage rooted in ancient Greco-Roman tradition. A better understanding of Europe will help students extend their acquired skills to multiple culture-related specialisms, such as media, tourism, international relations, and increase their employment prospects. Mediterranean Studies is the key to Europe! After completing the degree programme, graduate students will be ready to undertake research and enter PhD studies in culture science, classical philology or other subjects in humanities.

A UNIQUE PROGRAMME

The programme is shaped by the students of multiple cultural backgrounds, European or otherwise, who bring to the table their diverse experiences and perspectives. Apart from full time students, our courses are populated by visiting students participating in various student exchange programmes (such as Erasmus Plus), as well as bilateral agreements between Adam Mickiewicz University and foreign universities (Armenia, China). We have recently hosted students from Spain, Italy, Great Britain, Germany, Croatia, Turkey, Armenia, Georgia, China, Belarus and Ukraine. English programmes are also a popular choice of Polish students who are willing to exchange their experiences with international students.
