  • Have acquired heuristic research skills at an advanced level.
  • Have gained general knowledge of leading perspectives, theories, concepts, and paradigm shifts in the humanities and advanced knowledge specifically for own field.
  • Be able to engage in the public debates regarding issues in the humanities.
  • Have acquired English academic writing skills and have practiced writing a publishable scholarly article and a proposal for a PhD project.
  • Have started to build up a professional international network.
