Description
Located at Bard College Berlin (BCB), this program is designed for students pursuing majors in the humanities and social sciences—for example, philosophy, art history, economics, literature, political science, history, or the practicing arts—who wish to deepen their engagement with the major questions and currents of Western thought in a rigorous, interdisciplinary fashion. Students enrolled in Liberal Arts Berlin may choose freely from the course listings but are encouraged to take advantage of the numerous Berlin-centric classes, such as Discussing Deutschland: What Germans Are Talking About Today (in German), and Berlin Outsider: History, Politics, Film, Text.
