course development awards
for faculty
The Duke Center for European Studies has funds included in its U.S. Department of Education Title VI grant to award course development grants to Duke faculty members who work on Western Europe.
- These awards are designated for non-language, and preferably interdisciplinary, courses that focus at least 50% on Western Europe. Preference is given to FLAC (Foreign Language Across the Curriculum) courses. FLAC courses offer students area studies opportunities with a significant European language component. Such courses greatly enrich the internationalization of the Duke curriculum and allow students who possess proficiency in European languages to enhance their language skills while specializing in their own disciplines.
- Literature and Culture of the Portuguese Diaspora
- The Political Economy and Society of the Unified Germany
- Migrating Paris
- Italy and Its Others: Cultural Hybridity and National Identity
- Europe Between the Wars
- European Cinema in Conflict: the Metropolis, War, Globalization, and the Everyday
- European Theater: Family Ties and Loose Ends
- A Single Europe? Dreams and Reality
- Issues in European Culture and Society
- The Upheavals that Made France (1789-1945)
- French Art and Visual Culture in the Early Modern Period
- Classics of Western Civilization: The German Tradition
