BA / MA Students
American Studies Leipzig works each day with the core assumption at America’s leading universities: A program is only as good as the students it attracts, and the energy these students bring to a program.
This is especially true in terms of the teaching and research that can take place in any program. Dialogue in the classroom and creativity in research is only so innovative and dynamic as the ability and willingness of students to empower these pursuits.
That is why we include a section on Students under Faculty: To stress that in our liberal arts education philosophy at the core of the Leipzig Model for American Studies, Students are seen as an indispensable part of the pursuit of teaching and research. In short, Students are a core part of the program’s Scholarly Team.
Below we have begun to present our students. This is a work in progress, so please be patient with us for a bit. This page is meant to illustrate the very special qualities held by the students participating in the American Studies Leipzig programs.
