Students enrolled in any degree program may pursue a minor designation in German.
The German Minor requires successful completion of a minimum of four academic course units (eight courses) in German or German approved courses with a minimum cumulative minor average of 65%, including:
- at least six GER courses taught in German: GER 101, GER 102, GER 201, GER 202, GER 211, GER 250, GER 303, GER 304, GER 307, GER 308, GER 331, GER 350, GER 407, GER 431
- two GER courses taught in German or English, or German approved courses (see Note 2)
Notes
- A number of German language courses can be taken concurrently, for example: GER 201 and GER 211 together; GER 202 and GER 211 together; GER 331 together with any of GER 303, GER 304, GER 307, GER 308.
- German approved courses: DUTCH 101, DUTCH 102, FINE 112, HIST 223, HIST 247, HIST 265, HIST 341, HIST 358, MUSIC 254, MUSIC 255, MUSIC 260, MUSIC 261, RS 211/JS 203, RS 272/JS 233. Grades achieved in these courses will be included in the calculation of the German Minor average.
