AUSTRIA 5 Weeks, End of June thru August |
PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
This is the 18th consecutive year of the University of Alabama's
German Language summer abroad program. For the last seven
years we have been located at the University of Klagenfurt, in
Klagenfurt, Austria. Klagenfurt, a city of about 80,000 is located on
Lake Wörther (the largest mountain lake in Austria). The city, which is surrounded by mountains, is the capital of the Austrian state of Carinthia. At the University of Klagenfurt the students are enrolled in the "Deutsch in Österreich Programm." The program at the Institute lasts from July 7 to August 1. Thereafter the group will
travel to Munich for a week, with excursions to Nuremberg or
Rothenburg, Dachau, and Neuschwanstein Castle.
