Welcome to German Studies at Trinity College! We are a small team of dedicated teachers and scholars ready to help you develop your German language skills.\u00a0 Together we explore German literature \u2014 in original German and in translation \u2014 and study a broad array of subjects in which the influences and contributions of German-speaking peoples are evident: history, philosophy, religion, art history, performing arts, music, politics, and economics.\u00a0 German Studies at Trinity is truly interdisciplinary.<\/p>\n

But you may ask: why learn German? Of course, learning a language opens the mind, but German will also help you in your future career: teaching, translation, publication, business, international law, diplomacy, foreign service, and tourism.\u00a0 Also, knowledge of German will be helpful for graduate study in a number of disciplines in the humanities, the sciences, music, and art history.<\/p>\n

At Trinity, you have several options to study German: you may take just a few courses, do a German language minor, sign up for the interdisciplinary minor in German studies, or declare a German Studies major.\u00a0 There are great study away options in German and Austria, for students who are already taking German but also for novices.<\/p>\n

More than 60% of students at Trinity study abroad for at least one semester. German Studies offers two excellent programs to choose from: each year, students take part in the Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg Exchange<\/a> to study at universities such as Heidelberg, Freiburg, T\u00fcbingen or Stuttgart. The Trinity-in-Vienna<\/a> Program attracts a number of students each year to study a semester in Austria\u2019s capital and to take advantage of its many offerings in music, philosophy, psychology, and language.\u00a0 And soon, our Trinity-in-Berlin Summer Program will once again be recruiting students to explore Germany’s capital, one of Europe’s most exciting cities.<\/p>\n
