Summer Study in Würzburg

The aim of this ten-week program is to enable American students to learn about German and European history, politics, economic life and culture firsthand in Germany. The program provides the possibility to earn 6 to 9 University of Texas college credits in a ten-week course of study. It is conducted both parallel to and integrated with the regular German university semester. This way, the participants are exposed to the normal workings of a German university and to German student life.
The program offers the entire second-year German sequence (GER 312K and 312L; 6 credits). Students thus can fulfill their UT language requirement by attending the program. More advanced students also can take upper-division composition and conversation (3 credits for either GER 330C or for GER 379). In addition, lectures on History, Politics, Literature and Art History are conducted in English. Completion of first-year German by May 2009 is a prerequisite for participation.   (Read more about the Würzburg Program.)
