The European Studies Center in cooperation with Russian, East European and Eurasian Studies and History Department is launching a new study certificate focused on history, culture, economy, and their entanglements of and in central Europe - historically, politically and culturally the most diverse and dynamic region of Europe since 1800s that can be placed between Russian, Ottoman, German, and Habsburg empires, between Rhine and Dnepr and Baltic and Adriatic Seas. It is a place where two world wars started and genocides took place, where Cold War started and ended and where European integration emerged with its new dynamic. What insights can we gain on Europe and the world by looking at this region? The Central European Studies Certificate is for those students who are interested in exploring specific experience of Central European societies. This includes formation of identities, migration, nationalism, and collective memory, racism, religious and ethnic diversity, economy development in variety of political, artistic, and social forms.
