Summer Courses
The AJY 6-week Summer Program offers intensive language courses (6 credits, 90 contact hours) at the 200 level (for students with 2 semesters of German or equivalent proficiency) and at the 300 level (for students with at least 4 semester of German or equivalent proficiency). The curriculum for the language courses is built around co-curricular excursions and site visits in Heidelberg and beyond. Students may take an additional 3-credit course (Contemporary Controversies in German Culture, 45 contact hours). This option is especially recommended for students at the advanced stage.
