| Description: | Want a solid understanding of one of the world’s most widely-spoken languages and its influences on modern thinking? Courses in the German Department will give you the skills you need in German grammar, speech, reading, and writing. Plus, studying German opens a window into the country’s rich culture and heritage, and its literature and thought. German writers—such as Luther, Kant, Hegel, Nietzsche, Freud, and Heidegger—made significant contributions to modern thought and German literature, and laid the groundwork for modern subjectivity and notions of freedom.
To take an Honours degree combining German with another subject, a student must consult with the academic advisors of both departments to arrange the specifics of the program. In general, a combination of 66 – 84 intermediate and advanced credit hours in the two subjects is required. If students intend to take the German Honours exam, they need a minimum of 36 credit hours in German, including courses in Literature and Thought; if the Honours thesis or exam is completed in the other department, a minimum of 30 intermediate and advanced credit hours in German is required. |
