  • Byzantine Studies
  • Medieval Latin Philology
  • Medieval History
  • Historical and cultural studies information processing (Digital Humanities)

MAMS offers you the possibility of conducting medievalist studies in an interdisciplinary breadth while also focusing on extraordinary specialisms in subjects that, in Germany, can only be found in this combination in Cologne.
