If you truly want to broaden your horizons in the 21st century, learning German will give you the edge you need. One of the most widely spoken languages in the world, German is a leading language of science, literature, art, philosophy, and history. Our courses not only allow you to acquaint yourself with contemporary German, but also give you insight into the cultural and political history of German-speaking countries, and into German cinema and literature. Through exchange programs with Germany and Austria, you can complete courses toward your degree in a native-speaking environment. While on campus, the activities of the German Club provide an informal setting for honing your German-language skills.
