Course Offerings

Our German language program courses are taught by instructors who are sensitive to the challenges students face when learning a variety of subjects in German for the first time.

Beyond German language studies, you may also study a wide array of subjects applicable to your major. Plus, many programs and courses are now available in English through the University of Salzburg!

Graduate assistants who are studying for a master’s degree in the BGSU in Salzburg program provide additional help in small-group tutorials. With the advice and approval of the director, you may enroll in regular University of Salzburg courses in addition to our program courses. You may also do an independent project of up to three semester hours under a professor at your home institution. Approval by both institutions should be sought well in advance. 

Please contact us if you have any questions about the courses and programs.
