Foreign Study

Students majoring in German are encouraged to spend time in German speaking countries in the course of their undergraduate studies. Various possibilities are available: summer study; DAAD (German Academic Exchange) scholarships for summer courses at German universities; various junior year abroad programs; or a single semester of study abroad. The German summer work program sponsored by Princeton University accepts Bryn Mawr and Haverford students as guest participants. Under this program, jobs that pay a living wage are arranged in the German-speaking countries during the summer months. For Bryn Mawr students, participation in the Bryn Mawr program in International Economic Relations is possible. This program has a summer course component in Germany.

Students of German are also encouraged to take advantage of the many opportunities on both campuses for immersion programs in German language and culture: residence in Haffner Hall foreign language apartments at Bryn Mawr College; the German Film Series; the German Lecture Series; the weekly STAMMTISCH, and more informal conversational groups attended by faculty.
