We explore topics in various academic disciplines, such as history, literature, philosophy, art history, sociology, anthropology, political thought, and academic writing, in small discussion groups led by instructors from Bard College and partner institutions in Berlin.  Each year we explore a theme that speaks to the problems and crises of our time. Our current theme is ‘Freedom and Society’. 

    The courses are taught in the evening, from 18.00 - 20.30 h, and may involve academic excursions and extra-curricular activities at other times, including weekends.  No payment is required, all course materials are supplied, and childcare for participants with young children may be available.
