MA in German Studies in Boulder United States | University of Colorado Boulder

The University of Colorado Boulder's German M.A. program takes an interdisciplinary approach in multiple aspects. Applicants aren't required to hold a German bachelor's degree - we've previously accepted students with backgrounds in disciplines like History, Business, Classics, and English. However, all candidates must demonstrate adequate German language skills to engage in graduate-level seminars conducted in German. The program permits students to enroll in courses from other departments (typically three) and complete an interdisciplinary Master's thesis (with at least one committee member from another field). Additional program highlights include strong faculty connections across the College of Arts and Sciences, personalized academic guidance, and a distinguished teaching reputation encompassing both faculty and teaching assistants. Our program stands among the select few nationwide that provide a combined M.A./M.B.A. option.
