德语专业
A student majoring in German studies must complete nine units beyond the level of German 202, 包括GR305(作文), 谈话, 和上下文), GR416(高级课题), 另外还有七门选修课. 学生 will work closely with their major advisor to develop a course of study that addresses their interests. Elective courses must be approved by the major advisor. Three of the elective courses may be German courses offered in translation at the 200 level, or courses in other disciplines that have a thematic focus on German Studies. GR 120 and 121 (offered only through the study abroad program in Lüneburg) may substitute for two of these electives. The remaining four electives must be fulfilled by German courses above the level of GR305 in which all work is completed in the German language.
German majors are encouraged to apply for one of the two annual stipends for a year of study at the Universities of Regensburg or Göttingen. The college’s own fall semester at the University of Lüneburg, German, allows students to study German language at all levels. A student may also minor in German (details below).
