Courses
Prior to departure for Germany, you will register for one of the following courses if you're participating in the four-week program, or two of the following courses if you're participating in the eight-week program, according to the appropriate level. Upon arrival in Germany, you will take a placement test to confirm your level and course.
Please note: students who participate in one course on the program after the German 1002: Introduction to German II (4 credits) level will also enroll in a one-credit independent study in German Studies (German 2011: Immersion in German), while students selecting to participate in two courses after the German 1002: Introduction to German II (4 credits) level enroll in a two-credit section of the same course.
If you have any questions about the academic program or course placement, please contact the Program Director and Faculty Advisor.
