Why Study German at Valpo?
If you know you’d like to make the study of German a part of your college experience, you couldn’t come to a better place than Valpo. Our program has been designated by the AATG as a “Center of Excellence,” and we have a lot to offer.
About Our German Minor
The German minor at Valpo provides students with a strong foundation in language, culture, and communication. Through immersive coursework, students gain skills that complement a variety of majors and prepare them for global opportunities.
GER 203 | Intermediate German I | 4 credits |
GER 204 | Intermediate German II | 4 credits |
Nine additional credits in German beyond GER 203 | 9 credits | |
TOTAL (Minimum) | 17 credits |
- Students who place directly into, and complete, a course higher than level 203 may count the retroactive credit they earn for 203, but no other retroactive credit, toward the minor.
- Students who plan to teach German with an individualized major in German should consult the German faculty and the education department to discuss options.
- If you are taking an AP course, you may receive credit in German at Valpo. Whether you are in an AP course or not, you will still have the opportunity to earn retroactive credit for your high school work. All incoming freshmen take our German Placement Exam, which places you into the correct course. After you pass that course, you’ll earn four to eight retroactive credits, plus four credits for the Valpo course itself.
When you look through the student profiles, you’ll see that you can combine German with just about any major.
Students interested in earning a secondary teaching license can combine an individualized major in German with a minor in Education. Talk to German and Education faculty members for details.
Students in the College of Engineering can combine a German minor with an Engineering major in the VIEP-German program and gain experience studying and working in German, with the support of Valpo German scholarships.
Campus Jobs
Three students teach in the Kinder lernen Deutsch program, a weekly class for children who learn simple German through games and songs at the German House. Three to four students who live in the German House serve as Student Building Managers. They are responsible for setting up classroom space, taking building room reservations, interacting with guests who come to the German House, and other clerical tasks for the director of the German House. One student each year is invited to serve as the German Language Partner in the Language and Intercultural Learning Center in the Arts & Sciences building.

Additional Information
The Kade-Duesenberg German House and Cultural Center was built in the year 2000 in the style of the early 20th-century Bauhaus. Living in the German House is a great way to experience linguistic and cultural immersion right here on campus. Upstairs in the German House, 13 students, including a native-speaker Project Assistant, speak German and eat meals together. Living arrangements are very comfortable. Students have suite-style rooms, access to the balcony, and a beautiful shared space with a large dining-room table, sofas around a fireplace, and a well-appointed kitchen.
Downstairs in the Cultural Center, there is space for classes, film nights, conversation hours, and the many other activities the German program sponsors on campus. Students work at the main desk as Student Building Managers or teach on Monday afternoons in our Kinder lernen Deutsch program.

Study Abroad can fit into almost any student’s schedule.
Valpo offers three distinct study abroad opportunities in Germany:
You can study for a full year at the university in Tübingen, where you take an orientation course and then launch right into real courses in German at the university.
You can spend a semester at our study center in Reutlingen. Check out the Reutlingen Study Abroad blog! When you have a free day be sure to take some of these ten great “Short Trips from Reutlingen.”
If you are an organ student, you can study for a semester in Rottenburg at the Hochschule für Kirchenmusik.
You can take advantage of a wide variety of activities that will enhance your learning and are fun besides.
- German Club
- Grillfest – kick-off picnic
- Trips to the Chicago Lyric Opera
- Theaterfest – hosting area high schools for theatrical presentations and performance
- Kaffeestunde (coffee, cookies, and conversation)
- Interaction with exchange students from Germany, including the Josef Eberle Exchange Students
- Exhibits, film festivals and lectures, like those given by Josef Eberle Visiting Scholars
- Homecoming activities (the German House has won the “Spirit Stick” several times!)
- NEW SCHOLARSHIP: Josef Eberle Scholarships can be awarded annually to three incoming German minors. The award is $2,500 per year and is renewable each year, doubling in the fourth and final year (for a total of $12,500 over four years), as long as the student makes regular progress in the German minor and maintains a B- average in German and overall. This scholarship is added to existing financial aid and can be combined with the other Valpo scholarships for German students. Students who apply by February 22, 2025 will be notified of their status by March 1, 2025. However, the application will remain open until three scholarships have been awarded.
- Valpo’s Henry and June Giebel Study Abroad Scholarships are available to all German minors who study abroad in Germany for a semester or longer, as long as they have lived in the German House and maintain a B- average or higher. These scholarships are added to existing aid. They normally cover travel costs and additional expenses; they also cover housing costs on year-long programs. They can provide support as well for students before they go abroad and after they return.
- The John and Dorothea Helms Endowed Scholarship is awarded every year to a student minoring in German ($1,000, one time only, normally in the first or second year). Students are nominated for these scholarships.
- German House Residency Scholarships are available to German minors who live in the German House while enrolled in a German course. They are added to existing aid.
- Valpo German students may apply for other scholarships through entities such as the state of Baden-Württemberg and Delta Phi Alpha (the National German Honor Society). Valpo German faculty members advise students about applying for these scholarships when they become eligible.

Twenty-first Annual Theaterfest:
Thursday, April 10, 2025
Valparaiso University German faculty and students invite you to participate in Theaterfest, where your students can showcase their theatrical and German skills, meet German students from other high schools, and have a glimpse into what university-level German students are like.
FAQS:
- When: Thursday, April 10, 2025, 9 am – 1 pm (arrival beginning at 8:15 am; event starts at 9:00 am)
- What: Drama competition: 10 – 15 minute dramatic scenes memorized and presented in German. Scenes could be adaptations or excerpts from plays in German, dialogues written for language learners, or original works composed by the students and/or the instructor. Memorization is encouraged, but a prize may be awarded in a separate category for students who read from scripts.
- Where: Valparaiso University: in the Center for the Arts.
- Who: High School students of German from northwest Indiana schools. One school may enter up to three performances in the competition, but teachers in larger programs may contact Tim Malchow about the possibility of bringing more.
- Why: Let’s show our students that they aren’t alone in their study and use of German. There is a whole community learning and using German every day! This event addresses all five “Cs” and all of the standards!
Your responsibility:
- Register by February 15. We need a headcount by this date so that we can order lunches and make preparations. To register, send an email (tim.malchow@valpo.edu) with your name, your school, the total number of students you will bring, and the title of each performance. For each performance, indicate whether the students are Intermediate (German II-III) or Advanced (German IV-V). You may bring a maximum of three groups to perform (or contact Tim Malchow about possibly bringing more or other requests).
- Obtain permission from your school to attend. Arrange transportation to Valpo.
- Collect $13 registration fee per student (includes lunch). (German instructors and students on reduced or free lunch are our guests.) These funds can be brought with you to Theaterfest.
- Rehearse your students! Check the Judges Sheet (PDF) to share our criteria with your students.
Valpo’s responsibility:
- Organize event logistics and welcome your students.
- Plan for a box lunch for everyone.
- Arrange for Valpo student hosts and judges.
