GERMAN 206 - German Immersion

Institution:

Bard College

Subject:

Description:

Intensive study of a foreign language creates an effective learning environment for those who wish to achieve a high degree of proficiency in the shortest possible time. This course enables students with little or no previous experience in German to complete two years of college German within five months. Students take 15 class hours per week during the semester at Bard and 20 hours per week during June at Collegium Palatinum, the German language institute of Schiller International University in Heidelberg. As the course progresses, the transition is made from learning the language for everyday communication to the consideration of literary and cultural values through the reading of classical and modern texts (works by Goethe, Eichendorff, Kafka, Brecht). Financial aid is available to cover the costs of the program.
