    Equivalent to German V1101 and V1102. This intensive program provides one year of German in one six-week session.

Classes are conducted entirely in German and supplemented with written homework and audiovisual materials.

    The program draws on the German heritage of New York City (museums, Goethe Institut, restaurants, etc.). Students are encouraged to attend German-language films and musical performances. Students have many opportunities for informal conversation. Final grades are based on frequent oral and written tests, a project on German culture in New York, and a final examination.

    Students are advised that this course consitutes a full-time commitment. The workload of this course is very intense and students will be expected to spend 4-6 hours studying every day outside of class and additional time on weekends.
