What ideas of nature, communication or power do South American peoples have and what theories and methods do we use to understand them? In the main subject of Critical Cultural and Religious Research, you are allowed to be irritated by human behaviour in groups; you are invited to get to know foreign perspectives and contexts and thus break down prejudices. For this purpose, you will be taught fundamental specialist knowledge from the three disciplines of Empirical Cultural Studies, Religious Studies and Social and Cultural Anthropology. The ability to conduct independent scientific work, including the corresponding methods, is also part of this degree subject. An integral part of the degree course is the MarSkills programme, in which you acquire attractive and future-oriented key skills (see ).
