COSIMENA Summer School 2019

Are you from Germany or from one of the countries in the Middle East or North Africa? Are you either enrolled in a master’s programme or just finished (max. five years ago)? Are you interested in cultural heritage, are you wondering how digital applications and modern technologies will allow us to rediscover the past in a new way?

When will the Summer School take place?

Date: 7–14 September 2019
Location: the Aswan Campus of the Arab Academy for Science, Technology & Maritime Transport (AASTMT)
Travel & Accommodation: The DAAD will take care of the travel arrangements and will cover the costs of flights/travel, accommodation and boarding. In addition, transfer from the airport to the campus of AASTMT will be arranged.

Who can apply?

Junior researchers who:

  • are currently pursuing a master’s programme
  • have finished a master’s programme within the last 5 years
  • students/researchers may come from a variety of disciplines:
    • Mass communications
    • Middle East Studies
    • History
    • Political sciences and economics
    • Museum studies
    • Information technology, and other fields related to the topic.

However, because of the regional focus of the Summer School on Middle East heritage topics, all participants should have an interest or focus in the Middle East.
