The Bachelor of Arts in German is a capstone-focused program. In their final year, students participate in a capstone seminar led by a faculty advisor. This seminar encourages both independent and group reflection on previous major coursework, helping students uncover unifying concepts. Participants explore their academic interests while showcasing critical analysis, integrated learning, teamwork skills, and deep understanding of German language and cultural contexts. Credit cannot be earned for taking a lower-level course after successfully completing a higher-level course in Dutch, German, or Yiddish grammar and/or composition.
