• Co-curricular Opportunities
  Students wishing to obtain experience outside of coursework, but directly related to their study of German, are encouraged to participate in our service learning or internship programs. Through service learning students are able to connect real-world experience with a theoretical understanding of topics explored in coursework. Paid or unpaid internships provide students with work experience related to their study of German.
  
  
• Service Learning
  Students wishing to experience first-hand some of the theoretical concepts addressed in coursework may opt to substitute service learning for another course component at the 3000 or 4000 level. Interested students should contact the head of the German Section, Dr. Lana Rings (rings@uta.edu).
  
  For more information on service learning, visit UTA's Center for Community Service Learning (CCSL).
  
  
• Internships
  GERM 4393 may be taken by any student who has an acceptable grade point average and has proven that he or she is an independent self-starter. Any student interested in doing an internship should contact the head of the German Section, Dr. Lana Rings (rings@uta.edu).
