German Studies Minor

School of Languages, Literatures, and Cultures (SLLC)
http://sllc.umd.edu/german/

Program Director: Josh Alvizu, Ph.D. 

This minor will provide students with an in-depth understanding of German language and literature as a source of culture. Building on these essentials, students can concentrate on language, literature, culture, or a combination of these fields. This will be accomplished by taking 5 courses beyond GERS203 or its equivalent. Students will determine, in close consultation with the German undergraduate advisor, how to constitute their own concentration.
