Course Offerings Spring 2024

COURSES IN THE LANGUAGE SEQUENCE

We are offering all our regular German language courses from German 101 (Beginning German 1) to German 202 (Intermediate German 2) this spring.

If you are not sure, which one you should take, check out our placement guide here: https://www.german.pitt.edu/curriculum/language-placement.

In all our courses, we are working with the new textbook series Impuls Deutsch, as well as authentic sources from music, websites, and videos. In GER 202, you will also read a short book, Inge Scholl’s Die weiße Rose, about a resistance group in the Third Reich, to prepare you for more extensive readings in the upper-level courses.

Of course there will also be a project again! In the past, project themes have included political parties in Germany, regions of the German-speaking world, the situation of refugees in Germany and the US, and adaptations of well-known German fairy tales.
