Study German at the University of Leipzig

The Department of German Studies strongly encourages intermediate-level students of German to attend an eight-week, intensive language course in Germany.

The course is offered by the renowned Herder Institute at the University of Leipzig. Details, including information about housing, can be found at http://www.uni-leipzig.de/interdaf. You must apply directly to Leipzig-interDaF for course admission.

The Leipzig course replaces GERM 301 and GERM 302 and counts toward the German Studies major at Rice with 6 credit hours.
