STUDIUM INDIVIDUALE IN PRACTICE

In addition to the self-designed course of study, each student takes part in the core curriculum of the Studium Individuale, its intellectual backbone: one challenging interdisciplinary course of high intensity in each semester, taught in English.

Here, students are engaging in central themes that are relevant for both understanding and taking action in the contemporary world, such as: What is valid knowledge? How can we identify a problem? What are possibilities for, limits to and consequences of action? How can we understand and evaluate historical change? What is modern freedom?

AN ENCOMPASSING EDUCATION

Learning in the Studium Individuale deliberately continues beyond the classroom in often student-led activities: talks with guest speakers, practical projects, weekend-workshops, excursions, or simply informal exchange. Students are also supported and encouraged to spend parts of their studies abroad, in order to gain additional valuable experiences for their education.

As a personal, engaging and challenging programme, the Studium Individuale offers you a rich and meaningful education while also providing you with a sound basis for a variety of Master programmes, careers and life projects.

Among the sectors and types of organizations that regularly employ and work with graduates of liberal education programs are national or international NGOs; administrations, parliaments and political organizations; diplomacy and international organizations; consultancies, think tanks and research institutions; media and journalism; cultural institutions, museums and the arts, just as universities and research foundations.
