A study abroad course program that examines the higher education system of Germany in comparison to the US and other countries. Germany now provides strong leadership in Europe in terms of economic growth and leadership of the European Union; less known is its robust system and diversified system of universities and its commitment to internationalization. Through visits to universities, policy organizations, and government planning agencies, students will have the opportunity to meet with rectors, faculty, researchers, and students themselves. Our goals will be to understand the opportunity structures for all groups in the country, including the large immigrant populations.
