This program encompasses a two-week intensive German for the Professions course that introduces students to the language and culture of a professional work setting in Germany. The intensive language course is followed by the unique opportunity to do a two-week internship at a local business in Fulda, where students gain firsthand experience regarding daily transactions in the German professional world. After the internship, students participate in a four-week language and culture program through the International Summer University at the Fulda University for Applied Sciences. The program includes excursions to the historic Fulda Gap, the Wartburg Castle (where Luther translated the Bible), and trips to Berlin, Munich, and Vienna.
