Program description
German is not only an essential language for science, culture, and art, but it also has the third largest economy in the world. Drew's major in German Studies program emphasizes innovative learning and integrates language, literature, and culture. Students are situated in the epicenter of one of the largest concentrations of German culture outside of Europe, as Drew is less than one hour from New York City.
