During the first seven weeks of the program, all Dresden students enroll in a unique, 112-hour, intensive language and cultural immersion course, which focuses on working in a different culture. Students also participate in a series of practical excursions that bring them into centers of German policy, industry, commerce, education, and arts and arts administration. During these excursions, students conduct interviews or other interactive work that is integrated into the course.
German faculty teach all courses.
Upon successful completion of a semester, students earn 15 to 20 Boston University credits.
