Second Foreign Language

Students must have reading knowledge of a second foreign language in order to receive their M.A. in German.

Independent Study

Students interested in independent study in German should obtain an informational sheet and an Independent Study Contract from the department.

M.A. students may not take more than a total of 6 hours of independent study.

Policy on Grades of Incomplete
