Connecting Archaeology students with research across national borders: The Q-Kolleg at Humboldt-University, Berlin and the University of Nottingham, UK

The edited volume sets out to highlight the possibilities of linking research and student education in the curriculum. Our case study introduces the first Q-Kolleg at Humboldt-Universität, a project run in the Winckelmann Institute for Classical Archaeology at HU in co-operation with the Department of Classics at Nottingham University. By engaging students from two very different theoretical approaches and methodological traditions in the study of antiquity in a joint research project (e.g. the Pergamonn fries, the Elgin marbles), the Q-Kolleg seeks to alert students to the (national) limitations of their respective disciplines and the potential of international and interdisciplinary research across both cultures.
