General Requirements for the Major in German
  General Requirements for the Major in German Studies
Required are 10 courses numbered above 33. German 44 or the equivalent and two courses from the 100-series are required. Five more courses must be taken from among the German Program offerings, three of them taught in German. Two more courses may be chosen from a list of associated courses in the Humanities or the Social Sciences (see below).
Up to two courses in which a “pass” grade was earned are acceptable for either the major or the minor; up to three course credits from work completed on an approved Study Abroad program may be applied to either the major or the minor. All German Program courses taught in English are offered with a German language component (189), a one-half credit course which may also be taken without the student being enrolled in the main course.
Students must consult with faculty during the junior year regarding their senior exercise. Majors may choose a comprehensive examination (German 193) or a senior thesis (German 191). The deadline for the decision is the last day of classes in the second semester of the junior year. A thesis may be pursued in either the first or second semester of the senior year. It must be completed by the last day of classes if undertaken during the first semester, or the week before senior grades are due if undertaken during the second semester.
German Studies majors are strongly urged to study abroad for at least a semester. All majors are also encouraged to reside in the Oldenborg Center for at least one year.
