The German minor at SDSU is a valuable option to complement any major, especially in people-centered professions that require constant interaction with a diverse public. The minor offers flexibility, can easily be added to any major, is communication-oriented, and can be earned quickly when combined with a study-abroad or foreign internship experience.
Course Delivery Format
The German program offers flexibility and variety in the delivery of its courses. Some, including upper-division courses, are taught face-to-face. Others, including courses offered as part of the German cooperative program with USD are fully online, hybrid, or delivered through Zoom or simultaneous television (Dakota Digital Network, or DDN).
