A BA with a Double Major in German and another subject requires a combination of 60 to 84 intermediate and advanced credit hours in the two subjects. Of these 30 to 54 credit hours can be in German, and at least 12 must be at the 3000 level or higher. 12 credit hours must be in courses dealing with literature or thought.

Beyond Beginner-level German, the Honours program requires 54 credit hours in German Language, Literature and Thought at or above the 2000 level, including at least two courses in German Literature or Thought at the 3000 level or higher. It is recommended that at least four courses be completed in the last two years of the program. At the end of the program, students take an oral Honours Exam.

Honours students are strongly advised to complete some coursework in Germany, e.g. through the Canadian Year in Freiburg Program or a study term at a German university. Consult with the undergraduate advisor.

To take an Honours degree combining German with another subject, a student must consult with the academic advisors of both departments to arrange the specifics of the program. In general, a combination of 66 - 84 intermediate and advanced credit hours in the two subjects is required. If students intend to take the German Honours exam, they need a minimum of 36 credit hours in German, including courses in Literature and Thought; if the Honours thesis or exam is completed in the other department, a minimum of 30 intermediate and advanced credit hours in German is required.
