German Language Sequence
Every semester, the German language program offers three entry-level language courses as part of the language sequence. You can find our current course offerings for these entry-level courses here.
- The “fast track” option: GER 604 + GER 612. This is an intensive course sequence that allows you to complete your language requirement in two semesters.
- The “slow and steady” option: GER 506 + GER 507 + GER 612. In this course sequence, students take more time to cover the basics. Students complete their language requirement in 3 semesters.
Intermediate “Bridge” Courses
When students finish the entry-level language classes, they then enroll in our Intermediate courses, which act as a “bridge” to advanced study in Germanic Studies.
- GER 328: This course provides a review of basic grammatical structures as you learn about young adults in German society and engage with authentic German materials.
- GER 331L: This course focuses on learning about German society and communities, while providing continued opportunities to improve written and spoken German.
Advanced German Courses
Every semester, the German department offers a rotating selection of culture, literature, and linguistics courses for advanced students. See our current upper-division course listings here.
