According to Dr. Daniel Magilow, associate professor of German and faculty-lead of the program, this course \u201cintroduces students to key theoretical texts from the field of memory studies and applies them to the often-contested narratives that surround the United Kingdom, France and Germany and their respective roles in World War II and the Holocaust.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As part of the program, each student receives a $3,000 scholarship to participate in a 1-credit study abroad experience during the mini-term 2018. Students will depart for London after final exams and travel for 13 days through England, France and Germany to explore memorials, monuments, museums and cemeteries related to their studies.<\/p>\n<p>Bittinger became passionate about the program when she studied its purpose. \u201cI found connections between subjects I love to study and the sights we will be able to visit,\u201d she said. \u201cIt is an amazing opportunity to visit some of the most historic sites, both architecturally and culturally.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The interdisciplinary program is open to UT undergraduate students from all majors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Four students have been selected to participate in the Normandy Scholars program during the spring 2018 semester.
