Not available to students majoring in German Studies.

Overview

Department or Program:
Modern Languages and Literatures

The German Studies discovery offers students an opportunity to attain increased fluency in German language and cultural knowledge as well as the option of taking at least one of our many campus-wide German Studies courses taught in English that include art history, film, history, philosophy, and political science. Beginning with GERM 2302 or 3301 (based on existing skills), students with minimal fluency who pursue the German Studies Discovery will continue towards higher language, cultural, and writing skills while also experiencing some of the wide array of fields that connect to German-language thought and cultures.
