The series of lectures, which takes place every summer semester, is aimed at students of the humanities, linguistics and cultural studies as well as the humanities and social sciences who are not studying to become teachers and would like to find out about possible academic appointments and fields of work. Various people from the field will provide insights into their individual careers and will then be available for a discussion about possible steps, but also difficulties, on the way to the respective field of work. Relevant professional fields such as foundations, official statistics, culture and culture management/literature promotion, event management and cultural education or art education will be presented. The lecture will be organised and moderated for the first time this semester by lecturers from School III and IV: Prof. Dr Friederike Nastold (Art and Visual Culture) and Dr Alexander Max Bauer (Philosophy). The course can be credited for the area of specialisation in various modules (registration via Stud.IP). Link to the course
