    This course is designed to prepare students to communicate effectively with native and non-native English speakers from all over the world. We will raise your awareness for the communicative and cultural implications of situations at the university, at work and in everyday life. You will receive vital input on intercultural theory and relevant language structures (e.g. indirect questions). In order to do so, we will also explore our own cultural background and analyze our own intercultural experiences.

    Topics that will be covered:

    • What is culture?
    • Research Methods in Intercultural Studies
    • Cultural Values
    • Stereotypes and Prejudices
    • Intercultural Communication at the University/at Work
    • Ethnocentrism and Racism
    • Migration
    • Diversity and Intersectionality

    Methods we will use:

    • Theory
    • Simulations
    • Critical Incidents
