Department of German University College Cork

Department of German University College Cork Welcome to the page of the German Department at UCC, where we teach and study the cultures and languages of the German-speaking world.

UCC’s Department of German offers an exciting suite of courses aimed at both beginners and non-beginners. So you have the unique opportunity of learning a foreign language from scratch, or you can build on previous knowledge. All degree programmes involve intensive language training in one of the most significant European and world languages, both culturally and economically. Our module range incl

udes German translation, German film, literature and art, German history, society and politics, and our students go on to enjoy successful careers in a large range of professions that includes translation / interpreting, banking, sales, marketing, teaching and lecturing. In terms of career prospects, foreign languages have been found to add significantly to students’ life-time earnings, with German leading the field in this regard. We are a small department that offers excellent staff-student ratios, allowing intensive engagement with all our students, as well as a collegiate atmosphere that puts the needs of the language-learner to the fore. For further information on any aspect of our courses, please contact Dr. Gert Hofmann
