We offer tuition wavers and T.A. stipends.Our German graduate faculty advises students in many fields, from Applied Linguistics, 18th and 19th Century Studies, to contemporary German, Jewish, Media, Cinema and Gender Studies. We welcome students who are interested in interdisciplinary studies, since we work closely with colleagues in History, Geography, Philosophy, Art, Judaic Studies, and Music just to name a few.
