GERM 121 - Introductory German

(4)

FA, SP. An introductory course in the German language and cultures that includes an investigation of German-speaking countries and training in intercultural skills. The course serves as both a fast-paced introduction to German for students with no prior knowledge of the language, and as a systematic review and continued learning for students who have taken high school German but who, on the basis of a placement test, are not prepared for GERM 201. Students taking German 121 may continue with GERM 150 during interim or GERM 201 in the fall and then complete the foreign language core requirement with GERM 202 in the spring.
