Balkan Transcultural Studies Summer Program in Istanbul INFO SESSION

Columbia Summer Program in Istanbul: Balkan Transcultural Studies Information Session 

Building upon its existing relationship with Bogaziçi University and the Global Center in Istanbul, Columbia University is launching a new summer program designed to give students a deeper understanding of Balkan societies through courses that explore the multiplicity of cultures, languages and religions in the Balkans. Coursework will focus on religious diversity in the region and will present a dynamic vision of the Ottoman Balkan culture and the Christian, Muslim and Jewish traditions that intertwined to create it. The program combines an international instructional network with opportunities for guided individual research, collaboration with cultural institutions in Istanbul, and acquisition of practical skills for applying new technologies to documenting and analyzing urban history and culture.
