Develop a strong foundation in one of the globe's most prevalent languages and its impact on contemporary thought. Pair German studies with complementary programs like Environment, Sustainability, and Society (ESS) or Political Science to discover how works by Freud, Nietzsche, Marx, Hegel, Goethe, and Schiller remain pertinent to modern societal challenges.
Dal's German department curriculum emphasizes three key aspects: language learning, literary studies, and philosophical inquiry. Beyond grammar, German language classes often integrate literature and philosophy as instructional methods, particularly in advanced courses.

Certain German courses are taught in English, providing access to German literary and philosophical works even without language proficiency.

The exchange program offers immersive cultural experiences in Germany for up to twelve months while earning credits toward your Dalhousie BA degree.
