Majors and minors are encouraged to make their interests known early in their academic career, including the desire to study in a German-speaking country, particularly for programs administered through partner institutions. In addition to the department-wide Arneberg and Larsen scholarships, the German Program, awards the Max Kade, Stoltz and Rogers scholarships as well as the Boswau Endowment Fund exclusively to qualified students of German.
