Course objectives
The aim of the course is to acquaint students with the latest developments in the research of the discipline in question, and add an international dimension to their education. The course offers an introduction to current trends in linguistic and cultural studies of the relevant cultural area. Courses are typically taught by visiting professors as semester courses or intensive courses. In order to enhance student mobility, students can also take courses on relevant subject matters at foreign universities.

As examples of courses let me use the Intensive courses offered at the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures last fall semester: El despojo de la ficción teatral o la realidad escenificada Dr. Karina Vanessa Castro (Instituto Tecnológico de Monterrey, México) Picasso and politics: exhibitions of Guernica in the 1950s’ Dr. Juan José Gómez (University of the Basque Country, Spain) Cuestiones de la otredad en (la literatura de) Hispanoamérica Dr. Dóra Bakucz (Catholic University Péter Pázmany, Hungary) Otra piel, la misma piel: tacto y representación en cinco obras sobre la dictadura argentina Dr. Karina Vázquez (Richmond University, USA)
