Minor in German

The German Program has a joint Bachelor of Science degree with International Affairs (IAML) and a joint Bachelor of Science degree with Economics (GEML). A summer LBAT program in München and Weimar is also available. We also have team-taught courses in German with INTA faculty and work to maintain contact with German cultural, political and business organizations in the Atlanta area.

We have established a study/internship program with the Technische Universität München . Engineering and Computer Science students studying German have an opportunity to study a semester at the TUM followed by a six month internship with Siemens. For more information see the German link under Internships.

We invite you to check the Language Links section for German under Resources. There you will find direct links to online dictionaries, grammar, business German, German History, German Literature on line, Book Order links, Instruction Resources, lists of German Universities, German Newspapers and Magazines, German Servers, government and cultural organizations, and much more.

If you plan to pursue a minor, you should meet with that department's advisor to plan the appropriate courses. It is not necessary to meet with this advisor during your first semester or decide now which minor you might pursue, but you should explore your options early and keep your advisor informed. Every minor requires 18 hours with 12 hours being upper-level coursework (3000 level or above).

Once you've decided on a minor

1. You must declare a minor by submitting a Change/Addition of An Academic Minor(s) Form. For more information, please visit the Registrar's section on minors here.
   
2. You must also submit an Approved Program of Study to the registrar with your degree petition after you and your advisor meet to complete your degree petition paperwork. For more information, please visit the Registrar's section on the Approved Program of Study here.

Minors are posted on your final transcript. Meet frequently with your advisor to ensure that the classes you choose to take are approved for your minor and for any changes to the requirements. For additional information, visit the Registrars website.
