About me.
Hi, my name is Carsten Bösel and I’m the guy behind the Ticker. Below are a few highlights from my transatlantic vita:
I studied American studies, political science, and communication studies at Freie Universität Berlin and Duke University, North Carolina (USA). Anybody interested in US education policy and the troubled situation of low-income African American students in the inner-cities is welcome to take a look at my master’s thesis on school choice and equal educational opportunity.
In September 1999, I started working as an overseas educational adviser for the Council on International Educational Exchange (CIEE) at Amerika Haus Berlin, the local cultural section of the US Diplomatic Mission to Germany. Two years later, I was put in charge of coordinating the advising activities at all four of CIEE’s State Department-affiliated advising centers in Germany (Berlin, Cologne, Frankfurt, and Leipzig).
In fall 2002, I spent three weeks in the United States on a professional development program (USBT) sponsored by the US State Department. After a week of training sessions and workshops at the College Board in Washington D.C., I attended the College Board National Forum in Atlanta and went on to visit virtually all colleges and universities in the state of Nebraska, believe it or not.
I currently work as a free-lance educational adviser and specialist on US higher education, e.g. for CollegeCouncil, a non-profit education agency based in Berlin. In addition, I am a certified translator for English and German specializing in education and the liberal arts.
