Compensation
In some cases, MA “English Literatures and Cultures” students will not be able to join our field trips to the United Kingdom due to various reasons: mostly problems with their visa, mental health issues, parental duties…
In such cases, our department has found an alternative opportunity to compensate for the missed workload and as a consequence the credit points that would otherwise be missing. Though this might not be as exciting as a field trip, possibilities vary and encompass other enriching course options.
Instead of museum visits, exhibitions, theatre evening, etc., we offer students the chance to complete the module by substituting the contents: taking any two further courses from our master degree. However, students should come up with some kind of plausible connection between the two courses, i.e how they interrelate.
These two courses chosen by a student will be opened for the student for the Wahlpflicht-Forschungsmodul (registration via Studies Coordination / Lichterfeld).
At the end of the semester after the student has taken these courses, they will have to register for the module exam of the Wahlpflicht-Forschungsmodul and write a portfolio on the content of these courses and how the courses intertwine and add to the student’s curriculum.
Please talk to the Studies Coordinator Dr Lichterfeld about this!
