In advance of our biannual conference in Kristiansand, Norway (June 4-6, 2026), ASANOR is hosting an online talk with Fulbright-Norway director Curt Rice, followed by a round table discussion about teaching American Studies today. Please join us!
Part 1: Fulbright-Norway director Curt Rice on Internationalization in Higher Education
The U.S. is historically the most important research partner for Norwegian academia. For decades, collaborations with U.S. academics and higher education institutions have constituted a central part of Norwegian strategies for internationalization. How has this changed recently? What are the new challenges for Norwegian internationalization? What are the new risks, and possibly, new opportunities?
Part 2: Round-Table Discussion on Teaching American Studies in Challenging Times
Panelists: Eir-Ane Edgar (NTNU), David Gerwin (Fulbright Roving Scholar 2025-2026), Astrid Haas (University of Bergen), Izabella Kimak (Marie Curie-Sklodowska University, Lublin), Stefan Rabitsch (University of Oslo), Curt Rice (Fulbright-Norway director)
