International Certificate Program with a Focus in German for Dwight Look College of Engineering

Courses in language, culture and area studies combine to provide a certificate in German and international studies for students majoring in any curriculum in the Dwight Look College of Engineering. The certificate program prepares the graduate for positions in multinational companies, foreign organizations and specific countries in which German is used. Because of limited resources, the program will have a cap on the number of students admitted to the program. All courses in the program must be completed with a grade of C or better. The certificate will be awarded upon completion of a B.S. degree in the Look College of Engineering. To earn the certificate, which is noted on the students' permanent transcript, students are required to take:

GERM 200-level Courses 1 6 credits
Internationalization Courses 2  
Humanities or Visual and Performing Arts 3 credits
Social and Behavioral Sciences 3 credits

NOTES:
  1. See your major academic advisor for recommended or required language sections.
  2. See the Department of European and Classical Languages and Cultures and your major academic advisor for a list of courses that meets each of these requirements. Often, a course, if chosen in consultation with your major academic advisor, will satisfy both an internationalization requirement and a University Core Curriculum requirement.
  3. The international experience requirement is individualized, and it must be approved by the Look College of Engineering. It may be satisfied by an approved study abroad program, an international internship, a directed study experience, or another approved course or field experience.
