BA German Studies

If you want to enhance your career opportunities in the United States and abroad, expand your personal horizons, and better position yourself for success, pursuing a bachelor's in German Studies might be for you. Earning your bachelor's degree involves more than just learning to understand, speak, read and write in another language. You will gain insights into German cultures and explore literature and linguistics through required coursework and electives. Studying a world language allows you to acquaint yourself with another culture and develop a global perspective. It also can strengthen your analytic and interpretive skills, leading to high scores in math and English courses and on entrance exams.

Representing many world languages, literatures and cultures, our dedicated faculty promote excellence in research, teaching and professional service. Committed to cultural diversity and inclusivity, we teach our undergraduate and graduate students communication, critical thinking and research skills for competitive employment around the world. We strive to establish a reputation both nationally and internationally in research, teaching and professional service. Seeking harmony in diversity, we foster global literacy, responsible citizenship and interdisciplinarity.

You can perfect your German language skills through study at UNT and abroad, in the classroom and while working with conversation groups, attending film series, and more.
