The German program at Dickinson is designed to offer students a variety of courses in language, literature and culture.
Classes are small and intensive.
The study of the German language is seen as preparatory to the upper-level courses in literature and culture. The 200-level courses introduce students to German culture, to advanced language study, and to the study of German literature. Courses numbered in the 300's are offerings in the most important cultural periods, German film, and Popular Culture. Special topics courses are also offered on a regular basis. These courses are taught in both German and English.
