 Heidelberg, a beautiful and
romantic city that has been a university center for over 500 years,
is an ideal location for studying and absorbing European cultural
heritage. Paris, Geneva, Vienna, Munich, Zurich, Amsterdam, Brussels,
and all of central Europe may be reached within a few hours by train,
bus or automobile.
Student residential housing in
the university owned Moore Haus, is a spacious turn-of-the-century mansion
that commands a breathtaking view of the Neckar Valley. Moore Haus
also contains a study center, student center, microcomputer facility
connected to the Internet, and offices. It is adjacent to
Heidelberg's famous castle, very near the University of Heidelberg,
and within convenient walking distance of the downtown areas of the
city.
Classes are conducted in a modern classroom facility in the center
of the city. The Fall semester runs from September through December.
The Spring semester runs from January through April. The language of instruction is English, but all students
must register for a course in German, which must be taken for credit.
Students must have completed the German 151 requirement by the spring
semester before going to Heidelberg for the Academic Year
The Moore Haus contains a computer laboratory connected to the
Internet and a library of more than one thousand volumes carefully
selected to support the courses taught in the program. Additional
educational resources are available on CD-ROM disks. A library of
over 20,000 volumes in English is available to all students at
Amerika Haus, a cultural center jointly sponsored by the United
States and German governments. In addition, the comprehensive library
