Study Abroad in Germany

Study Abroad

There are several opportunities to study in Germany through the Lakeland College Study Abroad Program.

Lakeland College maintains an exchange program in Germany. All students with knowledge of German, regardless of major, are eligible for the foreign study semester at Hessen Universitaet in Kassel, Germany or Universität Marburg in Marburg. Germany.

Guest Semester in Kassel, Germany: We have been sending and hosting students to and from the Universität Kassel since 1971.

Guest Semester in Marburg. Germany: This is a new program for international students run by the Universität Marburg. Its advantage is the beautiful city of Marburg. Its disadvantage is that it is run separately from the German university.

One Month Summer Language and Culture programs at various Hessen Universities

  • Universität Frankfurt: theme: International Business and the European Union
  • Universität Kassel: theme: 20th Century History and Politics
  • Universität Giessen: theme: business / health / law
  • Universität Frankfurt: theme: International Business and the European Union
  • Universität Marburg: theme: Peace and Conflict in the Near and Middle East

May Trips to Germany: The may travel trip, entitled Time Travel in Germany, to Germany is a general introduction to German and Germany designed for all Lakeland students. German majors and minors who choose to take the course will be assigned language teaching roles, and travel leadership responsibilities for the group or for a subset of the group. In this way they can acquire practitioner experience introducing other students to the language, customs and places that they will encounter on the trip.
