German was among the initial foreign language options when our university first launched in 1908, maintaining a vital connection to Pacific academic studies. As a dominant language in science, engineering, technology, literature, history, arts, music, philosophy, and political science, it serves as an ideal complement for students pursuing minors or dual degrees in these disciplines. Modern German has become the tongue of innovative thinkers, creative professionals, international correspondents, and global explorers. According to an MIT economist, German proficiency could boost earnings by approximately 3.8%, translating to roughly $128,000 in additional lifetime income.
Our dynamic German Program provides exceptional personalized guidance through academic counseling, scholarship assistance, active learning communities, and enriching extracurricular opportunities. Our distinguished faculty members consistently earn outstanding teaching evaluations and have been honored with numerous instructional awards.
