Rhine River in German


Freude, schöner Götterfunken!
Can you name that tune? Try it in English:

'Joy, thou glorious spark of heaven...'


As students at UMM quickly discover, there's more to German than language and literature. The music of Beethoven, expressionist filmmaking, the philosophy of Nietzsche, the paintings of Max Ernst, the history of the Reformation, the politics of Reunification... Germany comes alive through coursework and activities including film screenings, theatrical productions, and study abroad opportunities like our recent trip to 'Brunnenburg and Beyond.' (Check out UMMer Kris Hjelmeland's 'Brunnenburg 2000' page.)

Prepare yourself for greater success in politics, the arts, medicine, law, business, academia, graduate study, travel, or just about any other endeavor you can imagine through an exploration of German at UMM. Willkommen!
