Course Details

For this Summer Program in Germany, engineering students have the opportunity to take the Engr. 202 - Statics and Dynamics course at the Technical University of Berlin. This fits into a student's schedule as they take German 101 at Calvin instead of Engr. 202, typically in the spring semester of their sophomore year. Then, during the summer following their sophomore year, a Calvin engineering professor accompanies the students to Germany, where the Calvin professor teaches Engr. 202 . The students also take a course entitled German Language and Culture from a German professor. By participating in this program, students will also fulfill the Cross Culteral Credit requirement set by Calvin.

Classes are taught four days a week, providing opportunities for three-day weekends to visit companies and travel in Europe. This gives the students a great experience to gain credit for a required course while being exposed to another culture and another part of our world.
