Basic Language and Culture Program (101-104)
About the BLP Heading link
Our Basic Language Program introduces students to the German language and the cultures of countries in which the language is spoken.
Each course in the sequence is a 4-credit hour course that meets three hours a week and includes an online work component. The online work prepares students for class allowing class time to be spent really using language through conversation, games, and other activities!
The BLP is made up of a four course sequence:
- 101 – Elementary German I
- 102 – Elementary German II
- 103 – Intermediate German I
- 104 – Intermediate German II
Students who pass German 104 fulfill the LAS language requirement and are able and encouraged to continue with 200-level courses.
