TCU Study Abroad in Germany: Cologne and Berlin

At least every second summer students have the opportunity to participate in a summer program in Cologne and Berlin with TCU German professors and get TCU course credit.

Description of a typical summer program:

Students take a three-credit course which will offer participants an intensive immersion experience in the German language and culture. The two principal sites are Cologne (3 weeks) and Berlin or Vienna (1 week).

In Cologne, students will also take an instensive language course at the Carl Duisberg Zentrum in the mornings for 24 class hours per week. In the afternoons, your professor will accompany you on excursions relating both to historical and present-day Cologne. Excursions to neighboring sites (Aachen, Bonn, the Rhine river) will take place on weekends.  For this three-week period, you will be hosted by German families.

In week four, you will travel to Berlin or Vienna to experience one of the German-speaking world's most dynamic capital cities. Morning lectures will provide historical context.  Afternoon excursions will illustrate lecture content.
