(All courses are taught in English)

Students interested in science have the option to spend the fall semester in the culturally rich city of Dresden, Germany, combining science course work in English with the study of German. The program is designed to fit neatly into science students existing curricula and requirements. All courses are taught by German faculty and are approved by Boston University’s College of Arts and Sciences. Students will take an intensive beginning German course and three elective courses. Upon successful completion of the semester students earn 16 to 18 Boston University credits. For additional information on-site, please visit:

Host Institution
Technische Universität Dresden (TUD)
The Technische Universität Dresden is one of the oldest and most prestigious technical universities in Germany. Its name now only partially describes its mission, however. Since German reunification, the TUD has doubled in size by incorporating a full array of humanities, social sciences, and "pure" science departments as well. Please visit www.tu-dresden.de for more information.
