The BA degree program in Economics, Politics, and Social Thought provides disciplinary training in economics and politics within the framework of a core program in intellectual history that encourages the thoughtful and culturally well-informed application of social-scientific methodology and principle.
Core The core program consists of courses that address some of the most important texts and artifacts in the cultural legacies of Europe and the world. Specialization All students receive a foundational training in the basic tools of economic analysis and modeling, as well as an introduction to political theory and social and historical studies. At the advanced level, students choose one of the following areas of concentration:
Students complete modules on comparative global issues, access to choice, and decision-making, and on key ideas, movements, methods, and challenges in each field. Throughout the program, emphasis is placed on refining writing and developing mathematical and analytical skills. German Language Study Language study in German from beginner to advanced level is available throughout the program. All BA in Economics, Politics, and Social Thought candidates must demonstrate intermediate proficiency in German by the end of their second year. Electives Electives in studio arts (theater, dance, painting, filmmaking, art production) are available, as is a wide range of electives in philosophy, art history, literature, and social theory.
Study Abroad (optional) Study abroad in Europe (through the ERASMUS network) or the United States (at Bard College or its affiliated programs and campuses) and around the world (within the Bard Network or through Bard College Berlin's international exchange agreements) is possible in the third year. Internship (optional) An internship program supports the undertaking of practical training in the work of political and cultural organizations, public or private, for academic credit. Internships should be undertaken in the third year of the BA program. BA Thesis Regular assignment work for seminar classes is designed to ensure that students progress toward successful independent research, reflected in the BA thesis in the fourth year, which is completed under the supervision of an individual faculty member.
The degree prepares graduates for further study in politics or economics, or for careers in the fields of public policy, international relations, economics, or political science.
Over the last decade, many young adults have attended a summer course or completed an Academy Year or Project Year at the college. In 2012, students in the first BA cohort graduated. Future graduates will join a network of alumni/ae who are studying and working around the world. After graduation, alumni/ae remain connected, professionally and personally, to the college and to their friends and professors.
Bard College Berlin is an accredited German-American university that offers intensive, transdisciplinary education in the humanities and social sciences. The student body is highly international and diverse in terms of geography, culture, class, and economic background and meets with faculty in small seminars taught in English. An emphasis on critical thinking, intellectual ambition, creativity, and the connection between life in and outside the classroom is a fundamental feature. Qualifying students can earn both an American and a German BA degree.
It is by posing the “big questions” that have echoed over time, and by giving young individuals the skills necessary to comprehend and answer them in dialogue and with reference to contemporary challenges, that Bard College Berlin enables personal flourishing and prepares its students to contribute to a shared global future.
Located in the political, economic, and artistic center of Europe where global economic policies and measures on migration and security are debated and tested, and where the arts find their most varied and experimental expression, Bard College Berlin is in a unique position to offer its students direct exposure to current political, social, and cultural developments through seminars and activities rooted in the city. An internship program provides opportunities to gain work experience in a wide range of fields, such as the arts, human rights, publishing, urban planning, technology start-ups, and education.
This twofold Bard focus of specialized study of an intellectual heritage of continued relevance, and the application of ideas in “real life” through local exploration, artistic practice, public debate, and civic engagement programs, has prepared Bard College Berlin alumni/ae for creative problem-solving and successful collaborations in public and private sectors at local, national, and international levels. As a result, they have been able to pursue careers in domains such as international relations, public policy, education, journalism, and the arts as well as graduate study at the world’s most renowned universities.
Bard College Berlin was founded with the aim of returning small-group seminar teaching and interdisciplinary undergraduate education in the liberal arts to the highest levels of the European university context where it first originated. The two-degree programs that Bard College Berlin offers are predicated on the principle that specialized study in individual disciplines should proceed on the basis of a broad and thorough knowledge of intellectual traditions and the major debates, works, and transformations that have animated them. The academic lineage of 'social thought', which has its roots in post-war Germany and in the United States, is committed to examining the key innovations of human life and culture within the framework of their social and political determinations. Bard College Berlin's core courses in intellectual history directly reflect this commitment, but it is also a guiding ideal of the programs as a whole.
Bard College Berlin's BA degree in Humanities, the Arts, and Social Thought explores the major fields of the humanities (philosophy, literature, film studies, political theory, art history) with respect to their interdisciplinary development. The degree encompasses the opportunity to connect the practicing arts (theater and studio arts) with the philosophical theorization of art, and to consider the general historical relationship between knowledge, craft, and specialist discipline.
Bard College Berlin's BA in Economics, Politics, and Social Thought imparts training in the social sciences that is grounded in the history of human cultural change and reflection. The fundamental methods and models of contemporary economics are studied in dialogue with the movement of intellectual history, and in connection to theories of politics, and models of social functioning.
In keeping with the College's belief in providing a well-informed, creative and engaged education, the study of the social sciences involves the opportunity to work in the practicing arts, pursuing aesthetic as well as socially constructive projects. Students in all of Bard College Berlin's programs are encouraged and supported in undertaking internships and in civic engagement. The college aims to ensure that a liberal arts education cultivates active and productive citizenship.
Bard College Berlin: A Liberal Arts University is institutionally accredited at national level in Germany by the Wissenschaftsrat as of January 20, 2017.
The college first received state recognition from the Berlin Senate Department for Education, Youth, and Science (Senatsverwaltung für Bildung, Jugend und Wissenschaft) in accordance with sec. 123, para. 1 of the Higher Education Act of the Federal State of Berlin (Berliner Hochschulgesetz – BerlHG) in 2011.
Program accreditation for the BA in Humanities, the Arts and Social Thought was granted by the accreditation agency ACQUIN in Fall 2013. In 2015, the BA in Economics, Politics, and Social Thought received accreditation from ACQUIN.
Bard College is accredited through the Middle States Commission on Higher Education (USA) and awards a BA degree to students completing Bard College Berlin’s BA in Humanities, the Arts and Social Thought or BA in Economics, Politics, and Social Thought under authority granted by the New York State Board of Education.
