ConferencesAnnual Students Conferences at Humboldt - OrganizerThe Annual Students Conferences series sets out to support and foster the students' interest in academic exchange and discussions. It provides students of all levels (undergraduate, graduate and doctoral) with a space for the discussion of academic topics in the absence of the usual hierarchy often found in university seminars. The topics will be related to the curricula of the American Studies Program while also incorporating different ideas and approaches, topics which are less often featured, topics which combine contemporary culture with academic interests. The conferences are thus supposed to both enrich the regular curriculum and offer a truly academic forum for exchanging ideas. The conferences are organized by students of American Studies, the addressees are students from Humboldt-Universität as well as from other universities. The ConferencesThe Cosmopolitan Subaltern.
