New B.A. in Value Studies Applications are now invited for the new B.A. programme in Value Studies at the European College of Liberal Arts (Berlin, Germany). This is the first interdisciplinary degree programme worldwide to be structured around the concept of value. 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 naturally and 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. ECLA students and faculty come from all over the world and work together in English. Students live together on an attractive, green campus in a residential district of Berlin. Financial Aid is available for all qualified students unable to pay the tuition fees. Deadline for applications: 30 April 2009. Classes begin in October. To learn more, visit www.ecla.de.
