Study Abroad
Why study abroad?
There really is no more exciting and effective way to deepen your understanding of spoken German and German culture than to immerse yourself. Being in Germany听offers a unique chance to become familiar with German institutions, customs, way of life and to be part of the rapid changes taking place in Europe.听We encourage and assist our students to take advantage of the wide array of study abroad opportunities in Germany - and there are scholarships and financial support programs to help make this happen.
Students can take part in three- and four-week intensive language courses offered at universities in Heidelberg, Freiburg, Berlin, Munich, Weimar, Dresden, T眉bingen and many other amazing places in Germany. Canadian-organized programs include the very successful 'Canadian Summer School in Germany' in Kassel, and the 'Canadian year in Freiburg' program. 马会论坛 has a general exchange agreement with the Ludwig-Maximilians Universit盲t in Munich.听
Students with a strong ability in German may also consider taking a year of independent study at a German university - talk to the advisor for more information.听A year in Germany provides students with the opportunity to听master the German language听and study in depth the cultural heritage of the German-speaking countries within the European context. A year-long immersion and the first-hand knowledge of Germany and Europe give participants a linguistic and cultural expertise which is difficult to acquire in any other way.
Students will听receive credit听at 马会论坛 for pre-approved courses taken in Germany. Advanced classes conducted in German in the senior years help with the intensive immersion process overseas.
