GERM 101 Elementary German 6 credits
This course introduces the basic structures of the German language and everyday vocabulary in the context of common cultural situations and authentic and fictional media.

Both sections are flexible for you to enroll in if you have a conflict between your MWF / TTH classes and a 5-day language class schedule. Please speak with your German professor and the professor for the conflicting course. You can enroll in 2 sections at the same time. You will need to fill out the change request form for a course conflict that will need to be approved before the drop/add deadline for the term.
