Description:
| Duke in Berlin is designed to help advance German language skills, give an understanding
of German history and culture, and provide academic opportunities in art history and the social sciences.
During the fall semester, students take 4 out of 5 courses at Humboldt University
in former East Berlin. Three will focus on German language, culture and art. The two social science courses will
focus on Economics and environmental studies.
The program includes excursions to nearby German sites, to Dresden, and to Prague.
Spring-semester students will enroll in 4 advanced courses in language, literature, and social science, all taught in German at
the Free University in the suburbs of former West Berlin. Classes will include excursions to Jena, Weimar, Bonn/Brussels, and
numerous Berlin sites. Students will also audit or take for credit at least one regular Free University course. Students are
encouraged to enroll for the entire academic year.
Engineering students with at least two years of college level German may enroll in the spring/summer semester for up to two
