Starting from September 12, 2016 the University has started accepting applications for general courses and seminars in the Flying University.
The students will also have a chance to join Schools of Masters of Game that were initiated in January 2016.
This academic year, the Flying University’s focus is individuality, self-determination, identity, and constructing free time. As always, we don’t give "correct answers", but offer tools, methods and means of communication instead.
This year, education in the Flying University will again happen at two levels.
At the first level, students can enroll for general courses.
They provide for the development of various approaches in thinking, humanitarian and intellectual practices; introduce current and unique areas of modern Belarusian thinking, and help search for a Teacher.
The second level of education is based on Schools of Masters of Games.
We know about Magister ludi from the works of Hermann Gesse. Schools of Masters of Games are small groups that work in close communication with the Belarusian thinkers and intellectuals. Last year four schools opened, and one can join them by submitting an application and passing an interview.
During the year, several workshops will be working.
They are aimed at the development of ideas, testing the knowledge acquired and position formed, criticism and work on intellectual tasks. This is a meeting place not only with teachers, but a meeting place of colleagues.
If you want to participate in the new program of the Flying University, you should applybefore October 10, 2016 (application form is in the link of the course/school).
Detailed information about the courses, schools and seminars can be found in the Yearly Programme at the Flying University website.
It will be possible to learn more about the Flying University, its educational principles and approaches to organizing thinking, as well as about the possibilities of educational program during the presentation of the Flying University, which will be held on September 19, 2016 within the framework of the Week of Belarusian Thinking.
