M.A. Mittelalterstudien

The Heidelberg medieval studies master's brings several disciplines together to study the cultures of medieval Europe. It covers the lasting traditions of Christianity, Judaism and Islam and treats them through a cultural-studies lens rather than a single subject. Contributing fields include medieval history, medieval art history, Germanic and Romance medievalism, medieval philology and Jewish studies at the Hochschule für Jüdische Studien. Students therefore meet different methods and source materials within one course of study. The programme is a two-year master's offered in cooperation with the University of Heidelberg. Teaching is in German and English, and students can begin in either the summer or the winter semester. The college is a small institution in Heidelberg, and this course draws on its staff together with partner teaching. Students should check the official page for the current study plan, module handbook and examination regulations.
