Eight students from Hadassah Academic College's newly established Department of Politics and Communication have been invited by the Ruhr-University Bochum in Germany to present papers on "The Normalization of War in Israeli Discourse, 1967-2008".

The selected students will offer perspectives on how war is depicted and described in the Israeli media. The students will also be provided an opportunity to dialogue with students from the host university.

Bochum University is located in the Ruhr area of Germany, and is home to over 36,500 students from 130 countries. The University offers both undergraduate and graduate degree studies with a particular emphasis on the life and natural sciences, engineering, management, the humanities, and social sciences.

Hadassah Academic College inaugurated its Department of Politics and Communication last academic year, and specializes in preparing students for professional careers within Israel's political structure.
