Study abroad is essential to attain proficiency in listening, speaking, reading,
and writing. Students, therefore, who wish to minor in German are
strongly encouraged to study abroad. Courses must be taught in the target
language, i.e., in German. A minimum of a 9-credit summer program
or one semester of study in Germany would qualify. For students who
are not able to study abroad, language study in an immersion setting
may be substituted. All programs must be approved by the department
chair.
