Description
Luneburg is a beautiful, historical city dating back more than a thousand years. The Luneburg program is ideal for students interested in learning the German language and focusing on European Studies - specifically Germany's role within the European Union - or for fall and yearlong students studying Engineering. The USAC program is located at the Leuphana University Luneburg (formerly University of Luneburg), where you can participate in university activities and clubs and become acquainted with local students. You can also take elective courses, taught in English or German, in subjects such as political science, anthropology, economics, and speech communication, and qualified students can apply for a work-study grant or for an internship at a local business. Field trips to regional sites of interest, for example to Hamburg, Schwerin, and Lubeck, are included in the program, giving you opportunities to learn more about the country, the history of the area, and the German people.
Highlights
The program complements this academic window on the German people with experiential elements designed to provide you with the opportunity for social and cultural integration through the university, lodging with locals, and field trips to sites of social, artistic and historical importance. The Luneburg Program offers intensive language study - up to two years of university language requirements may be met in one semester.
