In the context of UA Ruhr (University Alliance Ruhr), students from the Faculty of East Asian Studies at Bochum University (OAW/RUB) have the opportunity to take classes at the Institute of East Asian Studies at the University of Duisburg-Essen (IN-EAST/UDE) and vice versa without paying additional fees.
Potentially, this gives MA students of East Asian Studies a larger range of thematic courses to choose from. If classes at the East Asian Studies center of the partner university fit the degree course scheme and ECTS requirements of their home institution, students may also apply for the official recognition of their course results achieved at the other location of East Asian Studies. Course results/examination grades are then passed on to the university where the students are originally enrolled.
This requires some planning in advance as course instructors, study coordinators, examination offices etc. at the different institutions have to be involved. To support you in this process at this early stage and approach the right persons in charge, the AREA Ruhr office team asks you to please contact them at office@area-ruhr.de if you are interested in taking a particular class or module at the East Asian Studies center of your UA Ruhr partner university!
Below you can find the list MA courses offered in English at the East Asian Studies Department (OAW/RUB) and the Institute of East Asian Studies (IN-EAST/UDE) during the winter term 2024/25. These courses are potentially open, but the actual availability has to be checked in every single case. Naturally, students have priority access to the courses taught at their home institution.
The overview below lists single courses (mostly seminars) at OAW/RUB as well as modules (often consisting of two courses) at the IN-EAST/UDE. By clicking on the title, you can find more information on each course or module.
