European College of Liberal Art (ECLA), Berlin is now inviting applications for the 2010-2011 academic year. Applicants can choose between two one-year programmes (Academy Year and Project Year), and a four-year bachelors programme that culminates in a BA in Value Studies degree. ECLA is a college without departments, where students work with faculty from different backgrounds on moral, political, epistemic, religious, and aesthetic questions, with the understanding that such questions are deeply connected. The B.A. programme is designed for students with a strong theoretical bent, who want to combine their pursuit of special interests with a demanding studium generale. Available areas of concentration are Art and Aesthetics, Ethics and Political Theory, and Literature and Rhetoric. The programme provides good preparation for continued study in fields such as philosophy, literature, political theory, and art history; and excellent support for students interested in careers in politics, organizational work, public policy, law, journalism, or the art world. Who can apply ECLA welcomes applications from students who show a genuine commitment to a liberal education, academic promise, high motivation, a readiness to engage in themes relating to history, literature, philosophy and the visual arts, and strong extracurricular interests that they are willing to share. All successful applicants also demonstrate an ability in English which will allow them to participate fully in seminar discussions and writing assignments. ECLAs student body is diverse in the range of cultures represented and in the breadth of educational backgrounds. Applicants must have a secondary school diploma, but we also welcome applicants in any stage of an undergraduate programme and from any field of study. There are no prescribed courses that an applicant must have taken.
