Special Concentrations
In addition to completing a German major or minor, the department offers special concentrations for students who simply want to learn basic German or concentrate on a particular area in developing their German skills. Our first- and second-year German language sequence is nationally recognized for its pedagogical advances including the integration of new technology under the skillful guidance of the Media and Design Studio to improve teaching and learning. Our business German sequence is unique and we are one of the few Universities in the United States who offer intermediate and advanced Business German Courses. And we encourage those who wish to pursue a career in teaching German to take the necessary courses in the School of Education and Social Policy at Northwestern University, a natural extension of your German studies.
