The Academic Program

Students will participate in two consecutive courses. All classes will be taught in English, with a maximum of 20 participating German and American students and multiple sessions per week. A syllabus of each course will be provided in advance, including the structure of the course, required reading and the grading policy. Students will receive reading material upon arrival. A student evaluation will take place at the end of each course. The work load, examinations and grading policies of all courses have been adjusted to the standards that apply at the participating universities. Please check with your advisor or SPICE coordinator on how to incorporate the courses into your study plan. After successful completion of the program, each student will be provided with an official transcript. All courses will be offered to German students as part of their regular curriculum.
