In addition to German fluency, students learn how to apply that fluency by studying German culture, literature, customs, and history.<\/p>\n<p>Wisconsin has a strong German heritage and many students find it both professionally useful and personally satisfying to explore the State's German influences. Many may come into college having already taken German in high school. Students can take a placement test to determine their starting course and may be able to earn retroactive credits if they place above the level of <span class=\"sc_courseinline\"><span class=\"code_bubble\" data-code-bubble=\"GERMAN 101\">GERMAN\u00a0101<\/span><\/span>.<\/p>\n\n<p>Fluency in German can provide a career advantage in all types of industries where Germany and other German-speaking countries are leaders: finance, marketing, manufacturing, politics, government work, electronics and technology, chemical and biochemical, environmental science, and architecture. At 51ÁÔÆæ, language students receive an education in not just language fluency but also in the culture surrounding that language. Context matters in communication, and we believe it is important for students to understand the history, literature, and customs of native speakers of German in order to successfully apply their fluency.<\/p>\n<p>Students are encouraged to participate in 51ÁÔÆæ's well-established\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/uwm.edu\/cie\/study-abroad\/\" target=\"_blank\">study abroad<\/a>\u00a0program. Destinations are available in more than 70 sites around the world and vary in length from a few week immersion, to semester-long, to even a full year. Because of the complexities of planning a study abroad experience, students are encouraged to start planning early in sophomore year. Most students engage in study abroad during the second half of sophomore year or during their junior year.<\/p>\n  \n\n<\/text>\n\n\n    <div id=\"program-details-jump\">\n        <a class=\"uwm-c-button uwm-c-button--s\" href=\"#program-details\" rel=\"\">Jump to Program Details <i class=\"uwm-u-pl-10 fa-solid fa-arrow-down\"><\/i><\/a>\n    <\/div>\n\n    \n\n\n    <div class=\"uwm-l-row uwm-u-mt-50\">\n                    <div class=\"uwm-l-col\">\n                <h2 class=\"size-h6 uwm-u-my-10 uwm-u-pt-10 uwm-u-border--top\">Program Type<\/h2>\n                <p class=\"size-h4 uwm-u-mt-0\">\n                    <strong>Major<\/strong>\n                <\/p>\n            <\/div>\n        \n                    <div class=\"uwm-l-col uwm-l-offset--2\">\n                <h2 class=\"size-h6 uwm-u-my-10 uwm-u-pt-10 uwm-u-border--top\">Program Format<\/h2>\n                <p class=\"size-h4 uwm-u-mt-0\">\n                    <strong>On Campus<\/strong>\n                <\/p>\n            <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"intro-sidebar\" class=\"uwm-l-col uwm-l-col--4 uwm-l-offset--1\">\n        <div class=\"uwm-mini-rfi uwm-p-card uwm-p-card--gold uwm-p-card--shadow\">\n            <div class=\"uwm-p-card--body\">\n                <div class=\"uwm-p-card--content\">\n                    <div class=\"uwm-p-card--title\">Request Information<\/div>\n                    <div id='form_47e36b1a-64dd-41ea-a6b5-b9deba75dca3'>Loading&#8230;<\/div>                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n        \n\n<div class=\"uwm-u-flex uwm-u-flex--wrap uwm-u-flex--left uwm-u-mt-40\">\n<a class=\"uwm-c-button uwm-c-button--gold uwm-u-mr-20 uwm-u-mb-20\" href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/undergrad-admission\/apply\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Apply Now<\/a>\n\n\n\n<a class=\"uwm-c-button uwm-c-button--gold uwm-u-mr-20 uwm-u-mb-20\" href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/world-languages-cultures\/students\/undergraduates\/german\/declare-a-german-major\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Declare a Major<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n<script async='async' src='https:\/\/admissions.uwm.edu\/register\/?id=47e36b1a-64dd-41ea-a6b5-b9deba75dca3&amp;output=embed&amp;div=form_47e36b1a-64dd-41ea-a6b5-b9deba75dca3'>\/**\/<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n\n\t    <section id=\"program-highlights\" class=\"uwm-u-py-80 uwm-bg-gray-dark\">\n        <div class=\"uwm-l-container--base\">\n        \n\n<div id=\"program-highlights-content-slider\" class=\"uwm-l-row\">\n<div class=\"uwm-l-col\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading heading-separator\" id=\"h-return-on-your-investment\">Return on Your Investment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A college degree can lead to increased job satisfaction and a higher salary.

time at 51ÁÔÆæ, you may have multiple members of your success team, including advisors, peer mentors and success coaches. Letters &amp; Science students typically work with at least two different types of advisors as they pursue their degrees: professional college advisors and faculty advisors. L&amp;S college advisors advise across your entire degree program while departmental faculty advisors focus on the major.<\/p> <p>College advisors are located in Holton Hall (or virtually for online students) and serve as your primary advisor. They are your point person for your questions about navigating college and completing your degree. College advisors will:<\/p> <ul> \t<li>Assist you in defining your academic and life goals.<\/li> \t<li>Help you create an educational plan that is consistent with those goals.<\/li> \t<li>Assist you in understanding curriculum, major and degree requirements for graduation, as well as university policies and procedures.<\/li> \t<li>Provide you with information about campus and community resources and refer you to those resources as appropriate.<\/li> \t<li>Monitor your progress toward graduation and completion of requirements.<\/li> <\/ul> <p>Faculty advisors mentor students in the major and assist them in maximizing their development in the program. You will begin working with a faculty advisor when you declare your major. Faculty advisors are an important partner and will:<\/p> <ul> \t<li>Help you\u00a0understand major requirements and course offerings in the department.\u00a0<\/li> \t<li>Explain opportunities for internships and undergraduate research and guide you in obtaining those experiences.<\/li> \t<li>Serve as an excellent resource as you consider potential graduate programs and career paths in your field.<\/li> <\/ul> <p>Students are encouraged to meet with both their college advisor and faculty advisor at least once each semester. Appointments are available in-person, by phone or by video.\u00a0<\/p> <p>Currently enrolled students should use the <a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.navigate.eab.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Navigate360 website<\/a>\u00a0to make an appointment with your assigned advisor or call (414) 229-4654 if you do not currently have an assigned Letters &amp; Science advisor.\u00a0Prospective students who haven't enrolled in classes yet should call (414) 229-7711 or email\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:let-sci@uwm.edu\" target=\"_blank\">let-sci@uwm.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<\/advisingtext>\n\n\n<div class=\"uwm-p-accordion uwm-p-accordion--icon-left-circle\" \r\ndata-accordion-prefix-classes=\"uwm\" data-accordion-cool-selectors=\"1\">\r\n    <!-- wp:uwm-blocks\/accordion-item {\"title\":\"Get Advising\"} -->\r\n    \r\n<div class=\"uwm-p-accordion--header\">Get Advising<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"uwm-p-accordion--panel\">\r\n    <div class=\"uwm-p-accordion--panel-inner uwm-u-clear\">\r\n        <!-- wp:list {\"className\":\"is-style-Default \"} -->\r\n<ul class=\"is-style-Default\">\r\n    <li><strong>\r\n    Currently enrolled majors with questions about general degree \r\n    requirements?<\/strong> Make an appointment with your assigned Letters & Science \r\n    College Advisor through <a class=\"uwm-c-link--external\" \r\n     href=\"https:\/\/uwm.guide.eab.com\/\" \r\n    target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Navigate<\/a> \r\n    or email your advisor.<\/li>\r\n    <li><strong>\r\n        Currently enrolled majors with questions about the major \r\n        specifically?<\/strong> Email your faculty advisor or the \r\n        department directly.<\/li>\r\n    <li><strong>Currently enrolled 51ÁÔÆæ \r\n        students not yet in the College of Letters & Science?<\/strong> \r\n        Email <a href=\"mailto:ls-advising@uwm.edu\" target=\"_blank\" \r\n        rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ls-advising@uwm.edu<\/a>.<\/li>\r\n    <li><strong>Haven\u2019t started classes yet at 51ÁÔÆæ?<\/strong> \r\n        Email our admissions counselor at \r\n        <a href=\"mailto:let-sci@uwm.edu\" target=\"_blank\" \r\n        rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">let-sci@uwm.edu<\/a>.<\/li>\r\n    <\/ul>\r\n<!-- \/wp:list --><\/div><\/div>\r\n<!-- \/wp:uwm-blocks\/accordion-item -->\r\n\r\n<!-- wp:uwm-blocks\/accordion-item {\"title\":\"Letters \\u0026amp; Science Degree Requirements\"} -->\r\n<div class=\"uwm-p-accordion--header\">Letters & Science Degree Requirements<\/div><div class=\"uwm-p-accordion--panel\"><div class=\"uwm-p-accordion--panel-inner uwm-u-clear\"><!-- wp:paragraph {\"className\":\"is-style-default\"} -->\r\n<p class=\"is-style-default\">In addition to the requirements for the \r\nmajor (in the\u00a0<em>Requirements\u00a0<\/em>tab of this page), students must \r\nfulfill a number of other requirements.
