Department of Germanics

The Department of Germanics, originally called the Department of Germanic Languages and Literature, was first established with the founding of the University in 1861. In 1972, the name was changed to the Department of Germanics to reflect the more comprehensive nature of the program’s content and the development of a German Area Studies Program. The Department currently presents one of the largest programs offering advanced degrees in Germanics in the United States and was ranked 12th in the most recent ratings of the National Research Council.
