American Studies
Bachelor
How could the same country elect Trump and Biden? Why is American culture as creative and dynamic as it is? How can Americans be so proud of their diversity, but also conflicted about it? Sounds interesting? Then American Studies is perfect for you!
During the Bachelor's program in American Studies, you will focus on all aspects of US society, culture, and language. You will gain in-depth knowledge about American politics, literature, history, media and arts and learn about the spread and status of English as a world language. Of course you will also learn to speak English at a professional level.
American Studies is one of the two specializations in our Bachelor's degree program in English Language and Culture. If you are interested in English Language and Culture (with a British focus), please check the English Language and Culture program.
