Overview

Your learning

This German BA programme from the University College London (UCL) is delivered primarily through seminars, often including individual and group presentations and small-group exercises. Lectures are less frequent, and are used to convey information which can then be discussed in the small-group teaching.

Assessment

The programme is examined in a variety of ways: timed examinations, assessed coursework, oral examinations, an assessed year abroad, assessed oral presentations, and take-home papers.

Careers

Thanks to a combination of intellectual training, articulacy and vocational skills, our graduates find employment in many areas of business and commerce, as well as in the public sector (especially, but not exclusively, in education and culture).

While a significant number of our graduates choose to remain in the UK, others spend at least part of their working lives based elsewhere, often in German-speaking countries. Recent graduates have been very successful in gaining employment with leading companies such as Deutsche Bank, Google and the Wall Street Journal, and with organisations such as the British Council.

A high percentage of our graduates proceed to further study, either acquiring additional qualifications in law, journalism or business administration or embarking on Master's or doctoral degrees (in German studies and related areas such as translating, interpreting or international relations).
