Luxembourg Studies

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Luxembourgish deals as new discipline with the Luxembourgish and Luxembourg literature. Luxembourg's cultural history can also be included under this term.

Education

Since the winter semester 2009/10, the University of Luxembourg has been able to take a master's degree with the title “Master en langues, cultures, médias - Lëtzebuerger Studien”. Since there was only little demand for the course, it was repeatedly canceled for individual semesters, around 2013 and 2016.

It is also possible to acquire knowledge of Luxembourg Studies within the framework of the master's degree "Master en Enseignement Secondaire", which trains students to become a teacher in the Luxembourg school system. A bachelor's degree in a philology or a similar discipline in cultural studies is required for this.

Outside of Luxembourg, a “Research Center for Languages ​​and Literatures of Luxembourg” has existed at Trier University since 2004 , which bundles research and teaching on Luxembourg studies in the subjects of Romance and German studies. Furthermore, there has been a “Center for Luxembourg Studies” at the University of Sheffield since 1995 . Luxembourgish can be learned here as part of the “Modern Languages ​​& Cultures” bachelor's degree.
