Philosophy Study Abroad Programs in Berlin, Germany

Studying abroad in Berlin was one of the best experiences of my life! Through my time there I switched my major to focus on international business in the hopes of coming back. Since, I have been working at my home schools study abroad and away office to help send more students away!

I knew that I wanted to study abroad in Germany from my first German class in HS, however I was unsure if it would actually happen. After looking for several program and attending my schools abroad fair, i decided on the AIFS program in Berlin. It was hands down one of the best decesions of my life. I was able to immerse myself in the culture, learn basics of the langauge, and make friends that are gonna last a lifetime. AIFS had apartments that were super close to the city center in Charlottenburg, and super close to both the bus and the U-Bahn (subway). With this program we also traveled to several cities in Germany with AIFS and I chosse the option to travle to Prauge and Nuremberg with the FU-Best program, which is one of the programs that your courses are done through. The FU-Best course were good, especially the German courses. German courses were everyday Mon-Thurs. There are also elective course in which i took a german cinema class that covered films before 1945 and a Berlin Architecture class that covered from the 1920's to Modern day. The courses had some heavy workloads at time due to many of the grades being research papers. Overall the program was one of the best decesions of my life.
