Study Abroad Programs
An unforgettable study abroad experience in Wittenberg – the place where Martin Luther lived and worked.
Since 1502, Luther’s town Wittenberg has been a place of teaching and learning. Today, a number of international universities and colleges come here each year for study programs tailored specifically to their needs and requirements.
A study abroad program that fits your specific needs – sounds great?
For more than 25 years, the IDSK has been organizing individual study abroad programs for international universities and colleges.
Our partners in the U.S., Japan, and China send student groups, accompanied by 1-2 professors, to Wittenberg to learn about various topics in this area.
Potential course topics include:
- German cultural studies
- German history
- History of medicine
- Comparison of educational systems
- Comparison of social control
- Sustainability
- Europe and the European Union
Beyond that, nearly any field of study and concentration is offered. It is our goal to utilize the knowledge and potential available in this area while helping international visitors discover both the rich history and future of Central Germany.
To complement your lessons, we plan visits to well-known companies, start-ups, and institutions, invite experts to present on the topic, and bring in our lecturers for additional seminars.
Together, let’s create a program that will inspire your students, enhance your curriculum, and fit your budget.
