Julia Klingel

Julia Klingel serves as Research Fellow at the Erlangen Centre for Islam and Law in Europe (EZIRE) and Program Coordinator for the Elite Master’s Programme "Standards of Decision-Making Across Cultures" (SDAC) at Friedrich-Alexander University Erlangen-Nuremberg since 2020.

Her academic background includes:

• Master of Arts in Theater and Media Studies, FAU Erlangen-Nuremberg (2017-2020)
• Bachelor of Arts in Media and Communication Studies, University of Mannheim and Portland State University, USA (2013-2017)

Her research integrates Islam and Law in European contexts with cultural decision-making frameworks, examining policy implications for Muslim communities through interdisciplinary lenses combining legal, sociological, and media studies perspectives. Recent work emphasizes regional Bavarian policy development and European integration models.

Publications demonstrate consistent focus on religious-legal intersections in German society, with methodological approaches spanning policy analysis, ethnographic theater studies, and comparative cultural research across European contexts.

She maintains active affiliation with EZIRE's research initiatives and SDAC's interdisciplinary graduate program, holding weekly office hours for student consultation.
