The American African European (AAE) Summer and Winter Schools are proposed as an interdisciplinary and intercultural study program for Master and Bachelor students of the four participating universities: University of KwaZulu-Natal in Durban, South Africa (UKZN; School of Management), the University of Texas at El Paso, USA (UTEP; Departments of Communication and of Management), the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa (Wits; School of Economic & Business Sciences), and the Chemnitz University of Technology (CUT; Faculty of Business Administration and Economics). The topics “Border Studies“ and “Intercultural and Organizational Communication“ link collaborative teaching and research interests of the four universities as well as their current regional challenges of society and economy. The Summer and Winter Schools take place at the locations of the institutions participating, alternating yearly.
The inspiring AAE summer and winter school program was originated and founded by the initiative of David A. Coldwell (University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa), Andrea Fried (Chemnitz University of Technology, Germany), Frank G. Pérez (University of Texas at El Paso, U.S.A.) and Klaus-Peter Schulz (ICN, Nancy/Metz, France) in 2007.
