Abstract:

Due to the global division of labor and mobility, increasing global tourism as well as the global dimension of digital communication, there is more and more contact between people of different cultures. In different areas, whether in personal experience, in social networks or in international relations, more and more intercultural encounters are taking place. At the same time, in today's professional contexts it is often expected to be able to communicate effectively and appropriately with people from different cultures. Intercultural communication skills are becoming increasingly important in our globalized world, and this key skill is increasingly required and sought after in the job market.
The course offers the opportunity to become familiar with the fundamentals of intercultural communication. The course will introduce students to key concepts of intercultural communication and enable them to apply them both in an academic context and in future fields of work. Students will develop their awareness of the challenges and opportunities of intercultural communication. A major goal is to enable students to independently develop their communication skills and their competence to act in cross-cultural situations.
Overall, the course is designed to lay the terminological and conceptual basis for dealing with interculturality in a professional manner in both academic and professional contexts and to foster a key competency for working in an international context.
Throughout, the course will also offer suggestions for in-depth study and independent further work, as well as links to practical training opportunities.
