Spring semester only: February 8th to July 24th, 2010

(All courses are taught in English)

The Boston University Dresden Engineering Program offers a semester of study in the culturally rich city of Dresden, Germany. This program, offered during the spring semester, is designed for engineering students who wish to combine engineering coursework in English with the study of German. It is further designed to fit neatly into engineering students’ existing curriculum and requirements.

After completing the intensive German-language course, engineering students will choose three out of six courses at TUD—Differential Equations, Electric Circuit Theory, Waves and Modern Physics, Linear Algebra, Principles of Molecular Cell Biology and Biotechnology—and will also take The Social Nature of Technology. These courses are all approved by Boston University’s College of Engineering and the College of Arts and Sciences. Students also participate in field trips to research institutions, technical museums, and companies to gain insight into the past, the present, and the future of engineering technologies. Upon successful completion of a semester, students earn 20 Boston University credits. For additional information on-site, please visit: www.bu-dresden.de.
