About the Program

This dynamic city is a center of modern European history, leaving its imprint on the European and global political landscape of the 20th century. This program draws upon Berlin’s rich culture and traditions to connect your coursework with the living history and politics of the city. Immerse yourself in the contemporary culture of Berlin while exploring the rich heritage and history of Germany through integral course-related trips that take you outside of the classroom. For example, you might make a visit to the German Parliament as part of your Political Science class, or take a walking tour of historic neighborhoods in Berlin as part of your Literature course.
