The CU Faculty of Humanities offers German Master's and Ph.D. programs in German and French philosophy. The focus is on the interdisciplinary and intercultural networking of philosophy. Against the background of basic questions on phenomenological philosophy, philosophical anthropology, and contemporary philosophy, the courses deal with analyses of epochal thresholds, intercultural philosophy, the philosophy of art, and the interdisciplinary project of ecological philosophy. The central concern is not simply to presuppose concepts of 'culture', but to question them philosophically. Because of this wide spectrum, the courses are also of interest to all those who deal with cultural studies and theories of cultures.

A master’s degree is awarded to those who have completed an advanced educational program. Intended for students who have already graduated with a four-year degree, this further study enhances understanding in the student’s chosen field. Programs require an additional one to two years of work and a practical demonstration of learned material.
What is a Master in German Studies? These degrees are for those graduate students who intend to work within German cultures professionally. The advanced degree program further develops German language skills and understanding of the German culture. Some degrees are narrowly focused on only analyzing the German language and specific aspects of German society. Others are more generic and can be combined with business degrees as part of a dual major. Most will require students to demonstrate a familiarity with the language prior to enrolling.
Many graduates can speak German fluently by the time they complete their studies. Through reading and writing exercises, they learn to analyze patterns of speech and specific idioms. Students are better acquainted with German influences on world politics, art, philosophy, and technology.
Costs for these programs vary. Those interested should contact educational institutions directly for fee and tuition rates. Prospective students should also plan for their living and transportation needs during their studies.
After finishing one of these degree programs, graduates have a highly developed and specialized skill set. German organizations often look for employees who can bridge cultural gaps and expand opportunities in other countries. These professionals may take roles as managers and business development professionals for German companies. Students can also enter the education field as German language teachers. Some find employment as translators or regional guides. The knowledge of German culture also prepares graduates for careers in marketing for some European products.
