Master in Visual Anthropology
Department of Cultural Anthropology/ European Ethnology
at the Georg-August-University Göttingen.
Starting in winter term 2009/2010, the Department of Cultural Anthropology/
European Ethnology offers a Master’s program in Cultural Anthropology/European
Ethnology with particular focus on Visual Anthropology: the Curriculum Visual
Anthropology (CVA). Students who are interested please apply until May 15th
2009: http://www.uni-goettingen.de/de/103531.html
12 places will be reserved for the Master’s program Curriculum Visual
Anthropology.
Curriculum
The CVA is offered as an integral part of a full-value Master of Arts in
Cultural Anthropology/European Ethnology. Among the discipline’s theories,
methods and range of topics students will concentrate on the representation
practice of the ethnographic film.
Beside the introduction of theories, approaches and models of ethnographic
films and based on film analytical and film historical considerations, in the
first semester of the Master’s program students will especially practice the
handling of video technology in several field studies. In the second semester,
students will develop and present their own film draft which will be put into
practice in the third semester. In the fourth semester the Master film should
be produced as an integral part of the Master thesis. This process will be
supervised by a film colloquium.
With this combination of Cultural Anthropology/European Ethnology and Visual
Anthropolgy, this degree program provides the students with the necessary
requirements for an employment in the whole range of the subject: from academic
science to jobs in museums to film and media.
Courses will be taught in German.
For further information on the CVA, please see: http://www.kaee.uni-goettingen.de/cva.
